Holocaust TV Series

The historical fuck-ups are all the more bewildering for the actually pretty good respresentation of the Holocaust up to 1941. It got even kinda funny they way they were ticking off major events in chronology and I could pick out what they were referring to, but then they got to Auschwitz and it's as though eveyone making it was getting steadily more and more drunk to get away from how depressing it must have been, until they slapped a nonsensical happy ending on and stagged off to be sick in someone's flowerbeds.

C- Please see me.

Talking of which, I note that the last Auschwitz survivor has just died. Ironically, the last man standing was not Jewish, but a Polish teacher who refused to obey the Nazis new 'education' rules for Polish children.

Ah! Someone must have misunderstood and I read their post on the topic.

He sounded like an interesting chap but I suppose as a one time teacher, I would say that.
