//Mateusz Morawiecki [Poland’s Prime Minister/said a map shown in the series locates the death camps within modern-day Poland's borders.
This misrepresents Poland as being responsible for the death camps, when it was actually occupied by Germany in World War Two, Mr Morawiecki said. //

I’ve read this report and frankly I can’t really make sense of the complaint. The death camps are located within Poland’s borders. That Poland was occupied by Nazi Germany is surely a given?

Perhaps I’m missing something so if someone else would be kind enough to give this a glance I’d be grateful.

I haven't watched the programme yet - though i intend to - but, reading some of the comments to the link, it would appear that the Poles are unhappy that the map shown is not that of Poland during the war. Instead it is a map from 1985 but, as this particular map was the one shown at the trial, it is quite relevant to the programme, imho.

He's right to point out the error but I don't think anyone seriously believes the sausage rolls are responsible for the death camps. Not even the Holocaust deniers in Labour.
'Gin' queer'
I've watched the series and it is very well worth watching . Not your normal run of the mill expose of the neighbour next door. Fascinating.

Watched the first 2 episodes yesterday, Rosie, and will watch at least 2 more this afternoon. As you say, very well worth watching.
^ Wasn't that just the kind of action that started all this? ^
The power of Netflix !
Quite harrowing in places but a very powerful documentary. I won't spoil it for those yet to watch, but I do wonder what a jury would have made of the evidence put before them.
