Hitler's British Island

Alderney, a peaceful idyll in the English Channel, a jewel of the British Crown, and home to one of the darkest chapters of Britain’s wartime history. The British Channel Islands were occupied by Nazi Germany for a long five-year period - and the atrocities committed there during that time have taken almost 80 years to come to light. How many did they murder on British soil, and why did no one face justice for their crimes? Using cutting-edge technology, declassified wartime sources and buried government files, the series will shed light on the horrors that unfolded on Alderney during the Second World War, including reports of mass graves and shootings in cold blood. Heart-breaking testimonies from the families of those that suffered provide startling revelations into the scale of the brutality inflicted upon prisoners – many of them Jews – by the SS Death’s Head Unit. Through painstaking research by expert historians and investigative journalists, the series also investigate the true fate of the perpetrators, exposing a series of deceptions at the highest levels of the British government. Nearly a century after these horrifying war crimes, are we finally closer to finding out what truly happened on Hitler’s British Island?
