Days That Shook The World - the episode on the execution of the IF

[Imperial.Opal]

A few weeks ago I saw a series on the History Channel down under called Days That Shook The World ,each hour episode has two different stories,the episode I saw was about the last days and assassination of the family,worth having a look.Regards Steve.

That show was bad. Apparently, Demidova, Kharitonov and Trupp don't exist. It was obvious the actors that played the IF were not Russian speakers.

hey Guys, Any idea if the History Channel will replay it?

[olga]

I suppose it'll come around again sometime. You could have a look here.

I saw that-- the History Channel played the series over and over for about 5 weeks and then they took it off I THINK.

Hi,Selina, I saw that series on the History channel in Sydney about 2 months,that episode I saw the last 10 minutes,they usually repeat it in 3 months time, only show the royal family and pet dog in cellar awaiting execution,like the film Nicholas and Alexandra, they never show their loyal servants that were with them, Regards,Steve.                                                                       P.S. can you tell me why they vote on thursdays in the U.K. in Australia we always vote on a Saturday, looks like Tony Blair is going to win again.

tony blairs a bit of a prat
not sure why, but its a traditional thing, maybe cos its near the weekend? joking, i got no idea
i think the film was a bit innacurate now, but i saw it before i joined the forum so i thought it was plain scary

 I was looking it up on the internet and it said that the tsar, tsarina, Olga,Tatiana,Maria and Anastasia were in that movie.(1996) I wanted to know if it was a good movie?

I recently found out about this series(it is a docu-drama series, recreating days that shook the world, by the BBC), a dvd-box was released here recently, and I wonder is it worth buying? There are a few episodes i would love to see, but the one on the IF in special, so I wanna know how it is like, and does it recreates their last day until the execution, or goes it further into the burial and all that? If someone could tell me this i'd be thankful, I'm just curious here:p

The episode's I want to see are the next ones:

1. The episode on the execution of the Romanov's
2. The episode on the death of Diana
3. The episode on the execution of Anne Boleyn
4. The episode on the assasination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand
5. The episode on the last hours of Adolf Hitler

so if anyone could give me a little bit info on these i'd be thankful,

I watched episode on the execution of the Romanov's and IMO it's NOT worth watching.
