Unsolved Mysteries Of The Second World War - Last Days Of Adolf Hitler/ Stalin's Secret Armies
Two programmes. The Last Days Of Adolf Hitler - In May 1945 the Third Reich came to an end in the cataclysmic battles in Berlin. By the time the dust had settled on the ruined city, thousands of people had simply disappeared, never to be seen again. Amongst the thousands missing or lost from the city was Germany's Fuhrer, Adolf Hitler. Even today, mystery still surrounds Hitler's fate. Did he, as some claim, escape from the ruins of his chancellery and seek refuge in one of the South American countries? Or did Hitler take his own life by poisoning or shooting himself? What did happen to Adolf Hitler in these last desperate days of the Second World War? Stalin's Secret Armies - In November 1943 the Red Army unleashed one million men and thousands of tanks to encircle the German 6th Army at Stalingrad. Amongst this Soviet force, which inflicted on the German army its first major defeat of the war, were divisions whose existence came as a surprise not only to the Germans but also to the British, American and fellow Russian troops. Where had these powerful formations come from? How long had this secret army existed and had Stalin refused to commit them even when Hitler's armies were at the gates of Moscow?

Bergman Collection, The - All These Women
Marking something of a change of pace for Ingmar Bergman, this black comedy takes a pot shot at the world of artists and critics and focuses on the tension between the roles of a self-opinionated critic, Cornelius (Jarl Kulle), and a talented, egocentric musician, Felix. Felix, a womanising cellist, uses his music prowess to charm an endless string of female admirers. However, when Cornelius, a respected critic, arrives to write a biography on Felix, he finds his efforts hampered by all the women in the house - each one determined to protect their maestro's privacy. For Cornelius, this situation becomes increasingly humiliating as he is photographed in compromising positions, forced to dress in women's clothes and is even bombarded with fireworks. But the final insult is that he never actually gets to meet Felix.
