I love that series! Best WW2 documentary I've ever seen! The uboat section was one of my favorites, I think the desert war being close second. They did both theaters justice! I wish the part about battle of britain had more gun cam video in it though.

I bought the dvd series a few years ago, think at the time it was 140 bucks or something. Was well worth it

Some great footage in this Wolfpack episode
The sequence of the hedgehogs being fired off and exploding as they find the sub and the subs stern clear out of the water before sinking was stunning
