Episode notes

Dan explains the bloody Battle of Stalingrad alongside newly translated frontline accounts, taken from the letters of the German soldiers who were there. They shed light on the agonising final moments of the men trapped in the ruins of Stalin's city, and the ideologies that brought them there in the first place.

Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.
