The story of the German Resistance is one that is rarely heard, but the bravery of the conspirators, despite their lack of success in stopping Hitler in his tracks, is nothing short of heroic. In 1944, Operation Valkyrie and Colonel Count Claus von Stauffenberg got within striking distance of assassinating the Fuhrer. This programme, one of three focusing on the career of Adolf Hitler, examines the attempted July Bomb Plot, ahead of the release of the film Valkyrie (starring Tom Cruise) later.
