Thirties in Colour: Countdown to War
In 2021, Channel 5 broadcast a sister series on their 5Select channel called Thirties in Colour: Countdown to War, which would be replaced in the schedules by the 2009 series in September 2021, once the new programme had got to the point of war in its timeline. Not to be confused with the 2008 BBC Four programme The Thirties in Colour which looked at the work of documentarians Rosie Newman and Harry Wright, this series featured colourised footage of politicians, newsmakers and other important people from the 1930s (like Amy Johnson, the first woman to fly solo from Britain to Australia, and Ellen Wilkinson MP, who was involved with the Jarrow unemployment march), which was interspersed with modern-day comments and insights from historians, plus an onscreen counter ticking down to the declaration of war.
