About this episode
Why did Stalin sack Zhukov for warning that Kiev might have to be given up? How did Hitler talk Guderian into turning his panzers south, hours after he'd called the plan impossible? Why were German tank units already running out of men, fuel and machines in August 1941? Join Al Murray and James Holland for part 1 of The Road to Kiev, a four-part series that brings our coverage of Operation Barbarossa to its culmination, as Hitler overrules his generals, Stalin ignores his own Chief of the General Staff, and both sides blunder towards one of the greatest encirclements in history.
