Smithsonian commemorates D-Day

Monday, June 3rd, 2019

Seventy-five years ago, on the 6th of June 1944, the biggest military landings in history took place. You might think that by now there would be little more to discover about the invasion. But, after 20 years of research Dominique Forget, one of the world’s foremost experts in World War II archives, has identified nearly 100 hours of unpublished film archives, including 20 hours of the Battle of Normandy. Punctuated by in-depth explanations from leading experts, including Sir Anthony Beevor, the number one bestselling historian in Britain, The Battle of Normandy: 85 Days in Hell (June 6th, 9pm)  recounts the military strategic decisions that allowed this battle to take place, and how Normandy, France and Europe regained their freedom.

What the industry says about US

NBC Universal Global Networks, Central and Eastern Europe

We have worked with Global Listings on the launch of new channels into Central and Eastern Europe and have been very impressed with the standard of service, prompt responses to schedule amendments and proactivity in getting schedule and highlights information in plenty of time, as well as the delivery of our EPG content.

TT Spektra, Sweden

We use both the Global Listings press schedules (in Word) and their XML files. The programme descriptions are rather good and not too long, which is helpful. We use their text verbatim and import it direct into our database.
