Laurence Olivier narrates the acclaimed documentary series telling the story of World War II. In North Africa, the conflict took the best part of three years to resolve and was fought and refought over the same 600 miles of desert, culminating in the meeting of Rommel's Afrika Korps and Montgomery's 8th Army, the Desert Rats, at El Alamein.
