Churchill’s Bodyguard
As Winston Churchill stood watch over England, a tall, gaunt man stood watch over him: Walter H. Thompson, Churchill’s personal bodyguard for nearly 18 years. Together they rode with Lawrence of Arabia, dodged German bullets, and had countless brushes with death. Based on Thompson’s long-suppressed memoirs, featuring archival newsreel footage and historical reenactments, this 13-part documentary puts you inside the skin of the Scotland Yard detective who experienced— and influenced—the 20th century’s greatest events. CC; approx. 611 min. on 4 DVDs.
