This is a 2-DVD 1991 collection from the History Channel. It contains a four-part biography of Winston Churchill (British Prime Minister during WWII), as researched and narrated by Sir Martin Gilbert, the acclaimed historian and Churchill’s official biographer. Each episode is one hour long and is presented without subtitles. This is by far the most definitive video biography I have ever seen on Churchill, and I collect them.

The collection also included two additional 45-minutes features; the 1996 “Churchill & The Cabinet War Rooms”  - a previously unreleased on DVD special relying heavily on rare news reel footage to paint a portrait of British life during the war, and the Season 1, Episode 14 offering of Biography’s “F.D.R. -The War Years”, which does much the same for America.

History Channel Description – 

He was an uninspired student who won the Nobel Prize for literature. He failed military school examinations twice--and then became Lord of the Admiralty. A disastrous decision during World War I threatened to ruin his political career, but he was named Prime Minister of Britain in 1940.

The programs in this encyclopedic collection explore Winston Churchill's extraordinary life and monumental legacy. Written and hosted by his official biographer, Sir Martin Gilbert, The Complete Churchill is the landmark profile from A&E's acclaimed BIOGRAPHY® series. Churchill and the Cabinet War Rooms recreates the secret meetings where he orchestrated British strategy during World War II. And FDR: The War Years offers an intimate glimpse of Churchill's relationship with his most important ally.

Comments

Churchill was an evil, mass-murdering oligarch. He deserves to be remembered as such. He was pro Hitler until Hitler went west first.
Jesus larouchepac... Learn your lesson. Churchill was not pro Hitler. He even refused to meet himback in 1933. He was probably Hitlers worst critic among the Brits before, during, and after the war.

Chaimberlain though... well thats another story :-)
Pardon me for being an arrogant snob, but there really is little more amusing to me than the maundering pronouncements of someone who hasn't really studied history, when they use phrases like murdering oligarch to summarize as complex a person as Winston Churchill. Anyone who can so easily and neatly dismiss a man like Churchill can only possess a dilettante's mediocre knowledge and assessment capabilities. This is EXACTLY like some 7th grade hippie chick telling the dean of medicine at Harvard that she doesn't support vaccinations. The poster cannot begin to imagine how stupid they sound.
All we need know about the knowledge-gathering practices, intellectual honesty and emotional maturity of the poster is in their name.
Larouche followers make Alex Jones look like the BBC...
