THE SECRET WAR OF SIR CHRISTOPHER LEE | Forgotten History

Before he was Dracula, Saruman, or Count Dooku, Sir Christopher Lee fought a real war that was more dangerous than any role he ever played. A British war hero, Lee served in World War II with the Royal Air Force and was quietly attached to elite special forces like the SAS and SOE—conducting top-secret missions behind enemy lines, some of which remain classified to this day. From hunting Nazis to inspiring James Bond, this is the secret history of one of the most fascinating men of the 20th century. Written and hosted by Colin D. Heaton. Forgotten History is a 10th Legion Pictures Production. ==================================================================== Help support the channel: Patreon page:   / forgottenhistorychannel   Join this channel to get access to perks:    / @forgottenhistorychannel   Merch: Forgotten History Merchandise: https://fh-shop.fourthwall.com/ Now on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2OFlwcP... ================================================================================= Thanks for watching.
