Episode description as stored
Il Duce uses propaganda to become a folk hero - part saint, part Father Christmas. He bans journalists from mentioning his birthday or the fact he’s a grandfather - to promote an image of eternal youth.

And as the World Cup comes to the Fatherland, Benito Mussolini prepares to finally meet one Adolf Hitler…
A Noiser production, written by Jeff Dawson.
