Trivia
Hollywood producer Edgar Peterson asked Patrick Macnee to produce the British end of the project. At first Macnee only served as the head of the London production staff and conducted interviews with various military people who had worked with Churchill. But when Peterson was fired, Macnee suddenly found himself in charge and was tasked to hire a new director. Patrick immediately contacted his next door neighbor, John Schlesinger. Macnee left the production when he was offered to co-star in Los vengadores (1961) and a pay rise from 50 pounds a week to 150 pounds.

The Valiant Years should be put on DVD with CC.

I have of late read with some interest the comments and memories of those who have commented on the impression that "The Valiant Years" made on them. Now more than 40 years after first seeing it in TV in Canada as a child of about 8-9 years old, the impressions it made in my life are still very much alive and active. I share with many comments made already how the stirring music stays in mind this this day, and the amazing voice of Richard Burton as he portrayed Winston Churchill. In recent years I have been in London on many occasions and have visited the War Rooms where Churchill led the Britain's effort for 6 long years. His voice seems present there still due to what I heard on The Valiant Years. I would love to see this series again as I at the moment watching The World at War for I believe the 4th time. Some things should never be lost to the public. I suppose as it has bee said so many times, "Those who forget history are doomed to live it again."
