(16,386 posts)The made for TV movie, "QB VII"? I think it stood for Queen Bench VII and it was about the Nuremburg war trials. I saw it when I was a pre-teen and it has stayed with me all these years.

(36,325 posts)"Albert Pierrepoint (30 March 1905 10 July 1992) was a long-serving hangman in England. He executed at least 400 people, including William Joyce ("Lord Haw-Haw" and John Amery. In Germany and Austria after the war, he executed some 200 people who had been convicted of war crimes. Some individuals convicted of murder whom he hanged were later exonerated."
