Millions Like Us: How Cinema Won the War for Britain

Will Robinson

4 Episodes

1940, and Britain stands alone. Now more than ever, the country had to be united.

How did film kick down class boundaries? How did it shine a light on gender equality? How did it make us laugh, when we needed laughter more than ever before?

75 years on, discover for the first time how film inspired unity, humour, and defiance when we needed it most, and how, at a time of unparalleled national crisis, this, was their finest hour.
