It's excellent! The BBC produced it to mark the 50th anniversary of the start of the war. (I was 13 in 1964 and I remember the anniversary well.) There are 26 episodes, about 38 minutes or so each. What's interesting, compared to the documentaries for the 100th anniversary, is that in 1964 many veterans were still alive and they are interviewed!
