‘WW2: Race to Victory’ Preview
The latest docu-series from the History Channel is World War II: Race to Victory, which chronicles the way “three icons, superpowers and ideologies” came together “to overcome the greatest evil and achieve VE Day,” according to the History Channel’s press release.
British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, United States President Franklin Roosevelt, and Soviet Union Premier Joseph Stalin “find themselves in an uneasy alliance, fraught with power-struggles, false promises, and deadly suspicions of each other. The series paints an in-depth picture of the race to power and victory during the war, to reach VE Day.”
The preview video from the U.K. airing of the miniseries teases, “May 1945. The Allied powers defeat Nazi Germany. But despite their alliance against Hitler, this alliance was marred by deception and mistrust. The war became a race to Berlin between three world leaders each wanting to claim the ultimate prize. This is the war behind the war.”
The first episode, airing Sunday, June 14, is called “Mortal Peril” and it looks at the three world leaders’ attempts to “gain power and an ideological stronghold” during World War II.
The second episode, airing Sunday, June 21, is called “Victory at Any Cost” and it is described as “an exploration of the tensions at the heart of the Allied war effort, as the dominant powers weigh the moral ambiguity and actions of their alliance.”
The final installment, airing Sunday, June 28, is called “D-Day and Beyond.” Its description reads, “It is February 1945 and the Allies can almost taste victory. They agree to meet to decide what the future will look like after the war finally comes to an end. And so ‘The Big Three’ come face to face for the second, and last, time in the seaside town of Yalta.”
WW2: Race to Victory part one airs Sunday, June 14 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on the History Channel. Parts two and three air on subsequent Sunday nights — June 21 and 28 — at the same time.
