Hitler’s DNA: Blueprint of a Dictator
« on: Sunday 23 November 25 22:58 GMT (UK) »
Can't see that anyone has posted in relation to this UK Channel 4 programme.  Just thought I'd bring it to chatter's attention, for those who might be interested and able to view.

Not sure if that's a link to the programme that I watched on TV, but hopefully someone can give a link to be able to watch it online, if available.

That looks interesting. This article gives some more details for anyone interested:

This says he shares DNA with Ludwig van Beethoven, as do I - hopefully not via a mutual ancestor.  ;)

I did watch it and thought it was interesting, although it could have easily been condensed into one program rather than spinning it out to two…
Interesting how the popular WW2 song got it right!
