James Hanson is joined by Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and Nigel Jones to discuss what could have happened had Britain sued for peace with Nazi Germany after the disastrous fall of France in May 1940. There were some in Britain who were certainly keen on the idea, but the appointment of Winston Churchill, not Lord Halifax as prime minister was just one reason that assured this alternate timeline did not happen. If it had, how would the world view Britain, would we be looking at a Nazi dominated continent and does Operation Barbarossa even succeed? This is History Undone.
