  • Its early 1942 and the Nazi’s invasion of Soviet Russia has reached a critical stage. With the United States also about to join the war, Germany is crying out for more tanks and aircraft. Who can Hitler trust to save the war effort? No one is expecting Albert Speer, his friend and favourite architect. Despite his inexperience Speer proves to be shrewd and capable operator rationalizing German industry to maximise production. But his success soon stirs up a rat’s nest of jealousy and intrigue and when he tries to convince Hitler to accept increasingly painful sacrifices to save the Third Reich, his more sycophantic rivals are ready to pounce. Speer’s rise will put the ambitious architect into the firing line of the most notorious figures in the Nazi regime. It’s a confrontation that would threaten his life.

    Speer also was Uncle Adolph's personal architect of the future cities of Germany. Hitler used to tell him how the allied bombing was making it easier to rebuild Germany's cities.

      Martin Bormann took his own life on May 1, 1945 (claimed to be a day after Adolf Hitlers death) Yet was sentenced to death at the Nuremberg trials. The trial got underway on 20 November 1945. Lacking evidence confirming Bormann's death, the International Military Tribunal tried him in absentia

    Of those people involved with Albert Speer in Germany's high command. A majority took their own lives in 1945, towards and at the end of World War Two. Meanwhile Speer did spend 20 years in prison from 1947 and lived to publish several books before his death in 1981.

      I heard that he said he was sorry at Nuremberg trials and that probably saved him from certain hanging since he was responsible for his underground armaments plants working many workers to death. I was aquainted with a man whose Polish family was murdered by einsatsgrupen at 10. He ran escaping with his life until he was captured and put to work in an underground V2 tail fin plant surviving until liberation. He saw many people die in the cold and darkness and never being fed enough. He made it to Venezuela after the war and raised a family eventually landing in Nova Scotia where I found his descendants in 08. What a great reunion of sorts.

      @youngsong2254 The fact that he died in a London in actual England. Which has more truth to it than your fantasy tale
      While in London he had dinner the night before. From who this quote belongs.
      " l have some reason for considering this. I took Speer to dinner in London, at Brown’s Hotel in Albemarle Street, Mayfair, on the night before he died - of a stroke in St Mary’s Hospital, Paddington, on 1st September 1981." (Norman Stone)

    Todt told Hitler to his face that the logistics wouldn't be enough to win the war and that he should sue for Peace. Shortly thereafter Todts plane mysteriously crashes. Guess Hitler didn't like what he heard. But Todt was correct

      One of the most dirty slimy anyhow , they all were some had more luck than others at sanitising at the end to save their own necks BTW poetic for justice for Goering being annoyed with Speer throwing his colleagues under the bus. A full twenty year term served in prison by Speer was something, poor Hess another one of the unlucky ones by contrast.

    Some of the scenes are not related to the subject matter. Since I am aquainted with a lot of WW2 history it's easy to see the relevant scenery.

      It comes from the old way of using rivers etc to move from place to place. A " Boat/Canoe " was used.
      It being a flatbottomed boat called a " punt " . So the expression " worth a punt " means " Worth the trip " or " worth the chance ". Used a lot in betting
      shops.
