Britain Under the Nazis: The Forgotten Occupation

This series tells the controversial little-known history of the only part of Britain invaded and occupied by Hitler’s forces. The Nazis occupation of the Channel Islands created an almost impossible dilemma for residents who chose not to evacuate in June 1940: to resist, to collaborate or to walk the line between. The series draws on incredible first-person testimony, meticulously pieced together to give multiple perspectives on what really happened – with stories that intersect, overlap and defy each other in ‘their version of the truth.’
