Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With almost no lasting buzz and a small audience, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for the curious and history buffs.
The mood
Intense, eye-opening.
The pace
One season: easy to finish in a weekend or two, episodes of about 50 minutes, about 8 hours in all.
What might put you off
Nothing much for most grown-ups.

Using highly advanced colourisation techniques, critical moments from World War II, from Stalingrad to The Battle of Britain, are shown in a whole new light.
