REVIEW

“Received wisdom is that Sunday night drama should be cosy and cardigan-y, leaving sofa-bound viewers with a rosy glow.

World on Fire hasn’t been doing this for me. Peter Bowker’s multi-stranded drama following the lives of ordinary people across Europe in the Second World War has me hooked, but I have always come away feeling absolutely afflicted and shaken every week.

This fifth episode was the best so far. Technically, it drew lots of storylines together; emotionally it delivered a massive punch.”
