Hitler's final days in the Berlin Bunker – from his birthday on April 20th to his suicide ten days later set the context of this chilling drama which pre-dates later dramatisations of the subject by more than a decade. Written by Vincent Tilsley (who also wrote two episodes of The Prisoner), this TV drama stars Frank Finlay in a BAFTA award-winning performance as Hitler, Carole Mortimer as Eva Braun, Tony Steedman as General Jodl and Michael Sheard as Heinrich Himmler.

Berlin, April 1945: with his 'thousand year Reich' in ruins and Allied forces advancing on the devastated capital, Adolf Hitler spends the last ten days of his life with the most trusted members of his inner circle and his loyal mistress, Eva Braun, in the confines of his private bunker. While the delusion of victory continues to animate him, his limitless hatred and rage are turned towards his generals, and all those who, he believes, have betrayed him.

The Death of Adolph Hitler will be released on UK DVD on 20th April 2009 by Network at the RRP of £9.99. Not extra features have been listed.
