87: The Death of Yugoslavia
Number 10 in the Factual category
Five-part history of the political events and the wars which broke the former state of Yugoslavia into several nations and caused an international political and humanitarian crisis. Using interviews with all the major participants and archive footage of the events, the series impressively performed the double feat of making understandable something which had appeared intractable and of producing 'immediate' history. Subsequent events may demand an update, but few changes to the content. SB
