Another chance to see the television biography of Britain's wartime leader.

The third of four films provides new insight into Churchill's involvement in key events of the war between 1943 and 1945. It illustrates how he interfered in strategy and reveals for the first time the existence of Churchill's "naughty document", a plan on a scrap of paper proposing the post-war division of Europe with the Soviets.
The pressures on Churchill were beginning to tell. By the treaty of Yalta in February 1945 he knew that he had become the junior partner to Roosevelt and Stalin and that Britain was becoming increasingly powerless. Presented by Martin Gilbert.
