At about three thirty, on the afternoon of the thirtieth of april nineteen forty five, as Soviet soldiers advanced through Berlin, Hitler died in his study in his bunker. But how did he die? And how did the news of his death spread? In this episode of the History Extra podcast, Caroline Sharples delves into the investigations, discoveries, and reporting that followed the Fuhrer's death.

Speaking to Charlotte Vosper about her new book, The Long Death of Adolf Hitler, Caroline reveals the truth behind what really happened in the bunker. Your book explores the long afterlife of Adolf Hitler, his continued presence in cultural consciousness after his death. But before we can explore that legacy, I think we need to backtrack a little bit because Hitler's death was imagined and actually talked about before he died in nineteen forty five.
