    Not what I expected

    Please note that this is only the Bonus DVD and contains the making of The World At War. If you are not interested in the extras and just want to watch the original disks then don't bother getting this.

    Brilliant. Tha documentary is as good as I remember when seen in the 70's. Narrated perfectly. An authoritative account of the world at war.

    On the down side are the DVD menus which I found very confusing, surely there could have been a much simpler way to menu the disk. Be careful you don't miss footage!
