This episode will examine the women that surrounded Hitler once he came to power, and how they were propped up as the Aryan Ideal to strive for once Hitler approved of their positions.
The Nazis re-shape Germany in their own vision. Women are portrayed as the backbone of the Reich as the 'national community' is developed. Women are not to compete with men but are to work together with men: 'Aryan Motherhood' is an ideal but the reality is far more complex, especially with the start of the war. Although constrained by reinforced patriarchy, women at the head of the women’s and girls’ organisations help carry out this transformation. This episode explores and interrogates the Nazi’s ideal of “Kinder, Küche, Kirche” and how reality ultimately fell short of their ideals.
This episode explores how women were active and often violent participants and perpetrators in the war and its attendant atrocities- especially the Holocaust.

This episode explores the fanatical women who took Hitler under their wing and, through love and devotion, trained him in the methods of high society to launch him to power, only to be left behind once he achieved it.
In September 1934, Hitler addresses the NS-Frauenschaft, the main political organisation for Nazi women. He says,‘the national socialist movement has from the very beginnings of its existence not only seen but also found women to be its most loyal followers'. This episode frames the series and lifts the veil on the role women played in the Third Reich. It will focus on the women who turned Hitler from a rabble-rouser to a politician, the women who pioneered the Nazi Party, and the women who voted him in. This episode will look at the work women did in bringing Hitler to power.

This episode explores the many lovers of Adolph Hitler – and charts the unfortunate demise of all who dared resist his love, affection and sexual appetite.
Eva Braun is perhaps the most famous girlfriend in history - but she was not Hitler’s first lover. Piecing together a baffling parade of young women - some related to him - Hitler is revealed as a sexually perverse and often absent lover. Mysteriously, many girlfriends died in mysterious circumstances, and conspircy theories abound.
