The War of the World

Season 1 Episode 5: The Icebox

We remember the Cold War as a nuclear-powered peace that came terrifyingly close to falling apart. But there were many parts of the world where the Cold War was not 'cold' at all. The Third World War really happened, and it was fought in the Third World. Here the superpowers chose not to fight head on. Instead, they waged a war almost as bloody as the First World War - by proxy.
