Hitler's Bodyguard

Narrated by Robert Powell, this series makes use of previously unseen records and images to learn more about the men who guarded the 20th century’s most hated iconic figure.

Starting off as a politician and eventually evolving into the supreme leader of Nazi Germany, he collected a growing list of enemies during his pursuit of power.

During this era in power, Hitler’s trusty bodyguards prevented his death at the hands of over forty assassination attempts. One of Hitler’s most trusted bodyguards was Bruno Gesche, a tough street fighter who was repaid with a position on his personal bodyguard crew.

The series reveals more twists and turns, and even examines why Churchill and Roosevelt never directly attempted to harm such a tyrannical man.
