The Death of Adolf Hitler is a 1973 British television videotaped drama, an episode of ITV's Sunday Night Theatre series. It stars Frank Finlay as Adolf Hitler[1] and Caroline Mortimer as Eva Braun. First transmitted on 7 January 1973, the drama details the last 10 days of Hitler's life as World War II comes to an end and Allied troops are closing in on the Führerbunker. Michael Sheard (who played Himmler) and Tony Steedman (who played Gen. Jodl) would play the same roles in the U.S. television film The Bunker in 1981.

Finlay won a British Academy Television Award as Best Actor for his performance.
