Episode 2:
20th Century Battlefields - 1942 Battle of Midway
In the second episode of this new series Peter and Dan Snow fly to the middle of the Pacific Ocean to give a blow-by-blow account of the battle of Midway.
For a few crucial minutes in June 1942 the outcome of the war in the Pacific hung in the balance. Peter explains how the aircraft carriers of the US Pacific Fleet that had narrowly escaped disaster at Pearl Harbor were now all that could stop the carriers of the mighty Imperial Navy of Japan. It was a new type of sea-battle, where opponents ships never laid sight on each other. It was the bombers that struck the blows. Dan Snow tells the pilot's stories, and experiences for himself what it would have been like for the sailors as they struggled to fight fires as these massive ships came under attack and burst into flames.

Episode 4:
20th Century Battlefields - 1951 Korea
In the fourth episode of this series presented by Peter and Dan Snow sophisticated graphics bring to life the forgotten war of the 20th Century, the battle for Korea. The Snows journey to the border between North and South Korea which is a military frontline to this day, there is still no peace treaty more than 50 years after war broke out between the Communist north and Nationalist south.
Peter and Dan tell the story of two key moments in the years of fighting that embroiled soldiers from countries around the world. Peter finds out about the challenges faced by the Americans as they set out on one of the largest amphibious attacks in history, the Inchon landings. And on the banks of the Imjin River, Dan recounts how, in 1951, a few hundred British soldiers managed to stem the tide against thousands of attacking Chinese.

Episode 5:
20th Century Battlefields - 1968 Vietnam
Peter and Dan Snow tell the story of the turning point in the Vietnam War - the Tet Offensive of 1968.
Dan squeezes his 6 foot 6 frame into the claustrophobic tunnel system in which Communist fighters lived, stored their arms and planned a nationwide attack on the cities and towns of South Vietnam. Peter uses state-of-the-art graphics to explain how the US marines flushed out their opponents, street by street, room by room. Together the Snows join the British Army on an urban clearance operation to experience just how painstaking and disorienting an operation that can be. Some upsetting and violent scenes.

Episode 6:
20th Century Battlefields - 1973 Middle East
Throughout the 20th century, the Middle East has been riven by unrest, conflict and outright war. In this episode of Twentieth Century Battlefields, Peter and Dan Snow unpick the complex story of the fighting that broke out in 1973, in the biggest war between the Arabs and Israelis.
The roots of the war in October 1973 between Israel, Egypt and Syria date back to another conflict, the Six-Day War. On 5th June 1967, Israel pre-emptively attacked Egypt, swiftly followed by attacks on Syria and Jordan. The Israeli Air Force paralysed the Arab air forces and the Israeli Army routed the Arab armies. In just six days, Israel had seized control of vast swathes of territory, including the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt and the Golan Heights from Syria. Israel effectively tripled in size. However, although the Israelis were triumphant, the Arab nations had been utterly humiliated. By October 1973, they were ready to retaliate.
On 6 October 1973, Egypt and her ally, Syria, launched a simultaneous attack on two fronts. The Israelis were taken utterly by surprise; most were celebrating the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, Yom Kippur. They had not believed the Arabs capable of organising anything so grand, and didn't believe they would dare to fight back in the face of the omnipotent Israeli Air Force.
Peter and Dan describe the Egyptian plan to send 100,000 troops and 1,000 tanks across the Suez Canal, which separated Israeli-occupied Sinai and Egypt. They travel to the Golan Heights, where hundreds of Syrian tanks overran the Israeli army, and Dan discovers, while on a training exercise with the British Royal Marines, how the Egyptians used the latest anti-tank weaponry to stun the Israelis, who tried to counter-attack

Episode 7:
20th Century Battlefields - 1982 Falklands
25 years ago Argentina triggered the last battle on British territory when it invaded the Falkland Islands. In this episode father-and-son presenters Peter and Dan Snow fly 8000 miles to the South Atlantic to tell the story of how the British Task Force fought back to regain control.
With his high-tech graphic mapcase, Peter shows the challenges faced by the British, thousands of miles from home or even friendly bases. Dan feels the force of the Sea Harrier fighter jets, so crucial to the survival of the British fleet in these icy waters. And he goes on a night-fighting training exercise under live fire to experience for himself the tactics used by the British ground troops in their fight to dislodge the Argentinians.

Episode 8:
20th Century Battlefields - 1991 Gulf
In the climax to 20th Century Battlefields, Dan and Peter Snow go to Kuwait to tell the story of what Saddam Hussein called the mother of all battles, Operation Desert Storm.
Dan Snow describes how revolutionary new technology like Stealth bombers and precision-guided bombs would make this a battle unlike anything anyone had seen before. The Iraqis may not have had such cutting-edge technology but, back in 1991, they did have weapons of mass destruction: gas attacks were an ever-present fear amongst the Allied soldiers. Dan experiences how just a simple gas mask would have restricted a soldiers ability to fight in such extreme conditions. Peter Snow shows how both sides chose their tactics in a war dominated by cutting edge technology and ruthless political calculation. Disturbing scenes.
