Fw: von Braun

[anthony osborne]

Hello all
This is probably of no use to most American P-listers, but perhaps the good old BBC is available somewhere over there?

Starting 14.9.05, BBC 2 is running a (that dreaded genre, docudrama) four episode programme about the space race between the U.S.A and the U.S.S.R.  Of most interest is the first episode, concerning Wernher von Braun and his W.W.II exploits.  It has him careering around the zone with a bunch of technicians, vital documents and 100 V-2s with the S.S., the Soviets and the Americans in hot pursuit.
>From what I've seen, the actor playing Von Braun at this stage of his career is much too handsome and not nearly Teutonic enough for my liking.
Anyway, it may be of some interest, intruding as it does on G.R. territory.

Regards
Anthony Osborne
