The first 3 episodes of the acclaimed BBC TV series. No chronicle of the 20th century has ever come so close to the true spirit of the age. People's Century is a unique combination of rare archival footage and personal testimony. Through fascinating eyewitness accounts this acclaimed series examines how political, economic and technological changes transformed the lives of ordinary people.

Episode 1: 1900 Age of Hope: A new century brings a new optimism as the world's oppressed - from Russia to South Africa - took up the cry for freedom.

Episode 2: 1914 Killing Fields: Veterans of the Allies and german forces bear witness to the slaughter of the 9 million men as they remeber the destruction of tje old world order at the Somme, Verdun and Ypres.

Episode 3: 1917 Red Flag: From idealism to terror. The 'noble experiment' that was communism is recalled by the ordinary people who lived through it.
