Brilliant documentary...how I wish now that I'd listened more when my dad told his war stories. That was a heroic generation....we've gone down hill ever since.
I love timeline too! But they dont make a lot (maybe all) these docs They just buy the liscenses to play these old documentaries from BBC, history discovery ,ect
Sir David John White, known professionally by his stage name David Jason, is an English actor, comedian, screenwriter and producer. He is best known for his roles as Derek "Del Boy" Trotter in the BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses, Detective Inspector Jack Frost in A Touch of Frost, Granville in Open All Hours and Still Open All Hours, and Pop Larkin in The Darling Buds of May.
My mother told stories of the V1 doodlebugs coming over and hearing them run out of fuel and the terror waiting to see where it would land and explode.
@@stanthology: That's not the subject of THIS program. There's another one about the death of Heydrich. I'll try and find it. EDIT: FOUND IT! th-cam.com/video/whHbN8-E5Lg/w-d-xo.html
This has got to be one of the most beautiful documentaries I've ever seen. WW2 was terrible but how it happened left so much interesting stuff to talk about. It changed humanity and history.
The restored blue sports car he's driving is an early 1960s Sunbeam Tiger like the one James Bond had in the first 007 spy movie. But Q was NOT in the first James Bond movie. Oh, well, enjoy the show. Cool gadgets.
Well on"Operation Frankton " only in here i have heard that the 6 six were sunk while elsewhere all i have read/found was that 6 ships were damaged and nearly all of them returned to service months later. About "Operation Anthropoid" to be clear was not just an 2 men drop,was more complex then that,for instance they were inserted 7 other Czechoslovak soldiers(who endured very same training has the named 2 did).Unfortunately 1 of them(Karel Curda) turned informer and denounced his comrades hiding place to the Gestapo. Their hiding place is now a museum & memorial:Saints Cyril and Methodius Cathedral(where all involved soldiers and partisans are named).
Timeline hasn't produced a single one of their videos. They're re-licensed from past documentaries. I know this because I recognize most of them. So that little intro was a bald faced lie about producing the videos.
~18:50 The V1 wasn't a rocket, it was a cruise missile using a very cheap, crude jet engine. The United States actually built some copies of these to use on Japan, but Japan surrendered before any of them were used.
Just love 💕 this documentary 🌼 Thank you for sharing this with us 🌺🌞 What an elegant gentleman to give us a tour of the M I 5 quarters with a bar of chocolate no less 🍒🍇🥮🧁🍫🥂
A bit over the top with the ppe for asbestos dust particles. You only get asbestos dust particles in the air when you break, drill or saw something containing asbestos. And it make them look like teletubbies. lol
Love watching Timeline on TH-cam. This is fascinating, we had a few interesting Canadians like William Stephenson and Camp X in the spy world. All the best from the colonies, I mean Canada.
I am a Brit.. I am delighted that so many from the "Indian" countries have chosen to make England their home. We can only benefit from their wonderful culture and their cuisine is the most delicious and nutritious that I have ever experienced. 😋
Let's go to the Rothschild house to learn about the British secret service. I bet we would have to do the same in Germany to learn about the German secret service as well. Hmmm...
Timeline doesn’t produce and make the documentaries it uploads, just so you know. It’s just a channel that downloads documentaries from other sources (BBC, History TV, Discovery, PBS art ) and uploads them here.
I’ve seen you on the tv since I was a child and you’ll always be “Granville” to me. Enjoyed your documentary. Everything old is new again and thanks to data collection via mobile phones, computers etc, old trade craft will be coming into vogue.
now?? intelligence is obtained by inserted personnel into relevant depts. with current lax security, personnel is easily accomplished. the higher the ranking, the better the info as its now been proven .canada is an open door.
Without power steering, the steering wheels had to be big to provide enough leverage to turn without too much of a struggle. If you want to see some large wheels, check out an early 50s Chevrolet, big as a helicopter rotor. :)
@@Uncle_Torgo thanks Richard, I did look at the 50's steering wheels. My old 65 vw beetle was quite a joke given that it had also been used as stock car. The tyres were not much broader than a mountain bycicle's. I always had the last laugh though when winter came around and everybody was struggling to get their 80's cars started and my beetle just turned on. Guess no radiator had some advantages. Good ol' days. 🇿🇦
Operation mincemeat is the subject of quite a few documentaries. The family of the soldier never allowed him to be publicly identified. God keep your soul who ever you are. In death you saved many lives.
I hate these type of so called “documentaries” where they make it all about the host, I don’t care about the host trying to be an on screen personality, these type of hosts usually get more screen time than the actual history footage! Just give me the the history info & history footage narrated by a good narrator who is not talking about himself! I turned this off during the intro, tmi from these type of hosts. Lol
How funny when it's written in German on the replica of the V1 "Don't touch" the first thing Sir David does is well to touch it. Then he goes on to say, he isn't very fond of these things.
No. And that's the problem. We DO know that there is still a great deal of unexploded ordinance in the ground, both from WW1 & WW2. We just DON'T know how much and where exactly. And the terrible part is that most of it is still dangerous, even after a 100 years in the ground or underwater. And it's not just "normal" exploding shell, but also WW1 gas shells, still sealed and filled with terrible mustard gas. A couple are found each month. And nobody knows when the last one will be found.
@3:10 That chandelier joke though.. Haha
Brilliant documentary...how I wish now that I'd listened more when my dad told his war stories. That was a heroic generation....we've gone down hill ever since.
Churchill turned down Adolphs Peace Deal.
Rothschilds Finance both sides
I understand Rothschilds have financed every war since Napoleon.
Grow up fool, Stalin would accept no peace deal short of total surrender.
Fixed it for you; no thanks necessary.
Thanks for playing.
He knew how clever his people were.
I really enjoyed watching this. Very well done Timeline 💚

too right
You're all WWII history enthusiasts. We share a strong kinship.
It was one of those experiences that shaped our lives
My mother told stories of the V1 doodlebugs coming over and hearing them run out of fuel and the terror waiting to see where it would land and explode.
Operation Anthropoid - Jozef Gabčík was a Slovak , Jan Kubiš was a Czech soldier in the Czechoslovak Army
He didn't tell the whole story of what happened after they killed the Blonde Beast.
@@stanthology: That's not the subject of THIS program. There's another one about the death of Heydrich. I'll try and find it.

Well done!!! Best way of learning history. Thanks for sharing it.
Thank you Sir David Jason ☺
David Jason deserves his Knighthood.
Ty to all those who fought against fascism at home & abroad.
What is facism exactly? Can the left be fascist or only the right?
I always go back to a touch of Frost. Man when I watch your work the world goes away.
From across the pond, I thank you for such an engaging series of such heroes that not only saved Britain but the world as a whole. God save the Queen.
King now
Brits are experts in intelligence, deception/covert ops & they had their awesome boffins to boot!! 👏👏 Gotta Love "em.
documentaries provide visuals to my main medium source of information -- reading. thanks. god bless.

Yes, and they were so noisy that the people on the ground only got scared once the noise had stopped. Still a remarkable invention for the time.
My Dad had a V-1 fly right over him and cut out less than a couple minutes later.
I can’t be the only who heard James Bondage instead of James Bond?🤔🤨🤣🙇♂️ I know that that wasn’t what he was saying but it did sound like it🤣😅🙇♂️
Love this series!!! I could only find 3, are there more somewhere????
David Jason...love these documentaries!
Just love 💕 this documentary 🌼
Thank you for sharing this with us 🌺🌞

one of the best Documteries ive ever seen,from Bill in Limerick Ireland.
We've some right feckin' Del Boys in Rathkeale, eh...?
This is the most British thing I've ever seen lol
David's Sunbeam, is Lovely !
Best channel on yt

27:00 "We take the condom off, and that starts the fuse." A hundred possible responses to that line.
Timeline Ww2 rulz
Brits in 1939: "we will never bow to jerry!"
Brits in 2021: is an Indian colony
Good look on ya.
I am a Brit.. I am delighted that so many from the "Indian" countries have chosen to make England their home. We can only benefit from their wonderful culture and their cuisine is the most delicious and nutritious that I have ever experienced. 😋
Love Sir David John White and watch everything he is in. This is a great documentary, superb!
Is that Del Boy
For freedom... let freedom ring! ;]
Let's go to the Rothschild house to learn about the British secret service. I bet we would have to do the same in Germany to learn about the German secret service as well. Hmmm...
1st Love this Channel and its Documentaries
I do too!

Fantastic! informative and well presented. Luuvley jubbley!
I well remember learning the basics of industrial drafting in high school. What a crazy scenario fish found himself in.
A touch of Frost , WW II, MI 5,6,9 and the SOE? Where's Michael Kitchen???
The host is so brave in my opinion,obviously reliving something so terrible
I’ve seen you on the tv since I was a child and you’ll always be “Granville” to me. Enjoyed your documentary. Everything old is new again and thanks to data collection via mobile phones, computers etc, old trade craft will be coming into vogue.
Stonehenge was a bloody waste of all my resources, that aside, this is riveting. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
I could have done without all the lame, comedic touches. That said, I enjoyed all the mechanics and deception of espionage that was portrayed.
I love these kinds of docs. Thanks
now?? intelligence is obtained by inserted personnel into relevant depts. with current lax security, personnel is easily accomplished. the higher the ranking, the better the info as its now been proven .canada is an open door.
Thanks for saving the world. Love you guys. 🇺🇸 🇬🇧
Thankyou for greater freedom, worldwide, David Jason.
😂 How's the size of his steering wheel. My first car was a 1965 VW Beetle and it also had a steering wheel of that size. Oh my soul... 🤣🤣
Without power steering, the steering wheels had to be big to provide enough leverage to turn without too much of a struggle. If you want to see some large wheels, check out an early 50s Chevrolet, big as a helicopter rotor. :)

Are there not more of these WWII Intelligence episodes with David Jason???
There needs to be more!
47:00 Ironically, the Minox camera was made in Germany ...
Brilliant 🤙🍻🇳🇿🏴☠️
Dangit ! when the trunk explosion happened I jumped thru my skin!~ i'm so embarrassed.... (runs away sobbing...)
Operation mincemeat is the subject of quite a few documentaries. The family of the soldier never allowed him to be publicly identified. God keep your soul who ever you are. In death you saved many lives.
Also minox cameras, ANF their descendants were used well into the nineteen nineties. Only smart phones and other digital tech supplanted them.
Very good.
One point though, the Minox camera was a German product not British.
wtf is up with that guys head at 33:28 😂
The magical creature consequently decay because hovercraft controversly invite to a tall capital. fine, lazy idea

I thought the big problem was that Heydrich did not use an armored vehicle...

Sir David: you are the original femme fatale
Lady: 😎🕵🏻👵🏼
Excellent production!
Just ask the white mouse....
I love it when they throw Cecil Clarkes' bomb at the car: "God'n Bleedin Betty"
Is it a tiger or a alpine????
No "spring surprise"?
I should be working on my legs rather than now watching this.
Everybody has acces to Stonehenge
should have used RODGER MOORE 007 forthis
You seem to like a good rodgering, eh?
@@alfredttarski4521 sure LIVE AND LET DIE hhhee
Sunbeam Alpine, what a great choice!
Only thing I don’t like is it can teach the wrong things
Top marks, 007.
Salome (Live in Peace). Mögest du weiterhin im Frieden, Wahrheit, Liebe, und SEIN der Schöpfung leben.
This is brilliant, good old del boy..!!
worst timeline documentary i have ever seen
Does anybody know how much unexploded ordinance lies beneath the soil in Europe including England?
No.
And that's the problem. We DO know that there is still a great deal of unexploded ordinance in the ground, both from WW1 & WW2. We just DON'T know how much and where exactly. And the terrible part is that most of it is still dangerous, even after a 100 years in the ground or underwater.

A couple are found each month. And nobody knows when the last one will be found.
Whoa....! He really was a lady killer, wow!
I dont want to watch this, but i cannot click away
What was the Q-camera disguised as?
C c c
I am done watching wwii documentaries. I am living in the present.
what are you doing here then???
People can simply switch channels to suit them fine. But some chose to be ***holes.
110323
So MI5 was established before MI6?
Both founded in 1909
*I WANT THAT PIPE*
Double O Who?
Nice video
as usual Sir David Jason ...BRILLIANT!
One of my top 5 TH-cam history shows!
It's better than discovery channel
Britain to victory?
Which victory?
England v Windies at Edgbaston.
Oh Hitler's suicide and emptying the death camps, for starters.
Maybe those two events anger you?
The wacky shrine oddly enjoy because tom-tom immunologically spill across a lyrical station. pointless, volatile dance
Who let Joe Biden get to a keyboard?
🙏🏻 Thank you for sharing this with us! I love learning, especially history.
As if he was defeated
Did they fix up the repairs to stone h. Looking a bit exposed a few years ago. We couldnt visit until repairs done. Cement was still wet

Hey! It's Danger Mouse . . . or Count Duckula
Churchill was a demon. He loved war and death. Right up there with his friend Alistair Crowley.
Who bombed civilians first, the British or the Germans? I’ve heard arguments on both sides.
Germany first, then UK 10 days later. GERMANY SAID IT WAS A MISTAKE. UK did not apologize !
I think Britain declared war (following germany invading poland) but germany attacked first
Yes
