Churchill's Bodyguard - Love Him to Death (Xvid 47 mins)

In London during the Blitz, amid the mass jubilation of VE Day, the image of Winston Churchill is unmissable. Far easier to overlook in the same photographs is a keen-eyed, set-lipped face beneath a trilby. It belonged to Churchill's 'faithful vigilant guardian', who repeatedly saved him from assassins, flying bombs and his own reckless lust for adventure.



Detective Inspector Walter Thompson was Churchill's personal bodyguard for 18 years. He accompanied him over 200,000 miles across Europe, America and the Middle East and witnessed some of the defining moments of the 20th century. 'From the outbreak of war in 1939 until May 1945, except for a short period when I had a breakdown, owing to the long hours of work, I saw more of Winston than any other human being,' he wrote.



Churchill had 20 brushes with death, seven of which were direct attempts on his life where Walter personally intervened in some shape or form,' said Philip Nugus, a producer who has adapted the memoir for a 13-part television series. 'Talk about a charmed life.'



Among the threats to his life were from an Indian nationalist who tried to kill him in America, a German sniper team in Antibes, a loner with a loaded revolver as Churchill was about to board a flying boat, a sewer bomb in Athens planted by Greek communists, a German attempt to target his plane, and a navigational mix-up which could have seen the British Prime Minister shot down by the RAF.





Was Churchill a drunk, sobered up from time to time, a real war puupet ?
