I was going throug UTube, and fond a channel that carries a television show that ran in my area, every Sunday for about five years when I was but a lad. It's called 

The World At War/ 1973(World War II Documentary).

I watched Episode-23 Pacific (February 1942 – July 1945)

And Episode 8-The Desert: North Africa (1940-1943)

They are as good as I remember, and there is lots of footage that most will find "new."

Enjoy

Fantastic. I remember seeing those episodes when I was about 9 years old.
Great series. Great narration and story telling by some fine actors too.

Worth investigating simply for Laurence Olivier's diction & pronunciation alone !

Very possibly the finest war documentary series ever made. Interviews with a great many actual paticipants, and  in keeping with the tone, referred to by their rank and position at the time. Hence (from memory)  "James Stewart Squadron Commander" etc. 10 years previous, LWT had done a series on WW1 survivors, which I saw recently, and it was Gold. A few surprises came out in the interviews in TWaW , I'd love to have seen a Directors cut of some of those interviews
