CH4 Secret History - Hitlers Hidden Drug Habit (2014)

During the Nazi era, Adolf Hitler was presented to the German people as a great man of destiny, a man possessed of superhuman vigour and strength who would lead Germany to world domination. The truth was very different. Based on a secret American intelligence dossier and the medical diaries and journals of Dr Theodor Morell, the Fuhrer's personal physician, this Secret History documentary sheds new light on Hitler's health and extraordinary medicinal regime during World War II. Dr Morell's diaries, which have been locked away since 1945, are a unique source of information. They reveal that, far from being a picture of robust health, Hitler was a nervy hypochondriac. In fascinating detail, they chart Hitler's descent into illness and drug dependency, as he used uppers and downers, quack cures, powerful stimulants and multiple injections for various real or imagined ailments. The programme also contains revelatory film footage that the German censors tried to suppress, and which suggests that by 1945 Hitler was in an advanced stage of a serious degenerative disease.
