剧情介绍
In a landmark history series, Jeremy Paxman describes how the First World War transformed the lives of the British people, and helped shape modern Britain.
To commemorate the centennial of the horrific event, this four part documentary mini-series presented by host Jeremy Paxman explains how Britain faced the horror that was World War One and how the country profoundly changed in the process.
从后方和平民的视角看一战，比前线战事有意思得多，也和观者更为切身，除了苦难和丧失亲人之外，总体战带来了社会大变动，政府权力的扩张，对私人领域的干涉渗透，女性选举权势不可挡，全民福利的普及，战争后的英国彻底进入现代二十世纪。
