AboutTom Expertise While it is a huge topic, I am well-versed in World War II generally. There is a huge wealth of information available on the internet, HOWEVER, one has to know the trash from the gems. Many sites which are not obviously credible (govt, university, and museum sites, for ex.), provide erroneous information (intentionally or otherwise).

Expert: Tom Date: 12/27/2007 Subject: Re-enactment of Winston Churchill speech
Question I am dying to find a copy of a TV show I once saw: an actor re-enacts a speech Winston Churchill did in America after his Iron Curtain speech, where he takes questions from the audience and tells stories of his youth, Hal Holbrook style. Very funny. It was a special by Masterpiece Theater or PBS or History Channel or such: one show, not a series. I cannot find it by Googling, because I think it was part of a series of biographies or something, and it is only searchable if you know the title of the series. A wonderful intro to WSC for high-schoolers!
Answer Like you, without more to go on, I have come up with zero. I didn't see the show you saw, though I would also like to do so. Even imdb.com was no help, and that has been a good source for movie/video searches.
I know it CAN be found by online searching, but haven't had luck in hitting the clue I need. I'm sorry I couldn't be of any help this time. I could suggest the obvious, though - that you search for groups or forums that specialize in video entertainment or perhaps even Churchill, and post the question there. Someone knows!
