You can watch it fine by starting from the link on here

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00wlrzx

But the PVR failed to download it (it got the first two episodes OK) and 
when I tried from the command line - I got this:

desclong:       Andrew Graham-Dixon concludes his exploration of German 
art by investigating the dark and difficult times of the 20th century. 
  Dominating the landscape is the figure of Adolf Hitler - failed 
artist, would-be architect and obsessed with the aesthetics of his 
1,000-year Reich. In a series of extraordinary building projects and 
exhibitions, Hitler waged a propaganda war against every kind of modern 
art as a prelude to unleashing total war on the whole of Europe.   After 
the war the shadow of the Third Reich persisted, Germany remained 
divided and traumatised. How would artists deal with a past that 
everybody wanted to forget? From the work of Otto Dix and George Grosz 
and the age of the Bauhaus to the post-war painters Georg Baselitz, 
Hilla Becher and the conceptual artist Joseph Beuys is a long strange 
journey, but the signs are there that art has a place at the heart of 
the new reunited Germany.
