World on Fire is a BBC show that aired in the UK in 2019. Now, it’s available to watch in the US courtesy of PBS.

This video shows a trailer for World on Fire, a series depicting the events of the early years of World War II.

World on Fire follows several different stories, with characters in England, France, Poland, and Germany all telling their stories. And they’re all fascinating in their own right.

There are some woke elements: a gay couple in France, a pregnant woman rejecting the father’s help, etc., but don’t let those 21st-century tropes put you off.

The BBC has also already ordered a second season of World on Fire.
