National Geographic Channels in the UK and Ireland has picked up Go Button Media-produced factual series Secret Nazi Science from London-based distributor Cineflix Rights.

ABOUT FORGOTTEN FRONTLINES
Since the Allied victory, historians have chronicled the heroism and plight of ground troops, navy, and airmen – their wins, losses, and their sacrifices for victory. These stories defined the greatest generation, but it’s not the whole story. From conspiracies to covert ops, some pieces of the narrative seem to have slipped through the cracks of our collective memory. In this series, we fill in the gaps between those well-known and well-documented events. Unearthed research, expert interviews, archive, and CGI will bring to life the war efforts you’ve never heard of to reveal the truth behind WWII’s forgotten frontlines.
