Suez was British Prime Minister Anthony Eden's downfall. But it made a
hero of Egyptian President Gamal Abdul Nasser. In the first of a major
three-part series marking the 50th anniversary of the Suez crisis,
Betrayal traces the path that led to war. It is a story of occupation,
resistance, war and politics which marked the end of British imperial
dominance and saw the rise of Arab nationalism. It is also a familiar
tale of regime change and intervention, when western leaders attempted
to reshape the Middle East - not for the first time.
The programme includes interviews with participants and witnesses to
the crisis: including Anthony Eden's widow, the Countess of Avon, Omar
Sharif, David Attenborough and Khaled Mohieddin, one of the surviving
free officers who served alongside Nasser. The series also contains
dramatic reconstructions. Some strong language.
