Tony Robinson's World War One

Tony Robinson's World War One (2014)

EndedDocumentary show

In this series Sir Tony Robinson, the history presenter and former Black Adder star, tells the story of the Great War. How it started, how it changed the world and how it finished with a 100 day flourish of military brilliance, which finally put an end to four years of incompetence and slaughter. With the aid of hundreds of amazing archived 3D images of the Great War which chronicle WW1 from start to finish and breathe new life into the story, Tony Robinson's World War 1 allows modern audiences to see the war in a completely new way. Robinson will also show how the Great War changed British people for generations to come - liberating large portions of the working class, powering the rise of the Labour party and breaking the old ties of service to the aristocracy. The series will begin with Robinson visiting a Berlin Kaiserpanorama show, where he will explain the stereoscope 3D process and uses it to show Europe (in 3D) before the war - a cultured and beautiful lost world.

After lengthy stalemate in the trenches, the Western Front suddenly exploded into life. Germany risked everything with one final push for victory .But the Allies fought back. And, after four years of playing catch up, British tactics and technology finally defeated the German war machine. This is the story of how we finally won the First World War.
