World War II Behind Closed Doors

Monday 10 November
9:00pm - 10:00pm
BBC2

When the Soviets annexed a huge chunk of Poland under the guise of "liberation" they targeted the country's intellectuals. One woman recalls how she was arrested and beaten so hard with rubber sticks that her body was covered in black welts: "They beat me on the head . . . they were sadists." At this point, she breaks down and becomes incoherent with distress. It's intensely personal, piercingly sad testimonies like these that make this a living, breathing and shocking piece of historical research. No surprise, as it comes from master storyteller Laurence Rees, who also made the unforgettable Auschwitz: the Nazis and the Final Solution. In the first episode, Rees looks at the behind-the-scenes power-play between that wily brute Stalin and the Nazis. The details are chilling. A former member of the Russian equivalent of the Gestapo recalls how he witnessed the organised nightly slaughter of Polish prisoners. "It was certainly a horrible business," he says, with shameless understatement.
