i find the backroom dealings and cut throat politics fascinating, which if it weren't such an unfortunately bleak reality would make a wonderfully juicy fiction.

i'd prefer something a little dry and of good quality, i feel like the bbc's 26 part "Great War" is absolutely the high bar for history documentaries and i wish there were more in this vein

(i know they have something of a ww2 sequel bat that only covers from 34 or so onwards!)
