World On Fire S01E01-E03 480p HDTV x264
We have seen plenty of Wartime dramas which see it from the British point of view, I was impressed to see this told from the point of view of the Polish, an often overlooked aspect. It features breathtaking special effects, it looks lavish and features some terrific performances, Lesley Manville and Sean Bean in particular stand out. Part three was my favourite episode, I thought the story there was particularly harrowing, but there are some interesting segments. It does tell the story from the point of view of some of the minority groups, those that class this as pc, are pretending that such things didn't happen? In reality such stories happened. The scene that will always stay with me is the one where Helen Hunt talks to the Doctor responsible for the death of the disabled. A very harrowing, but powerful scene. Can't wait for Series 2. 8/10
