In no particular order, the three I can think of that spring immediately to mind are:

The World At War
The Nazis: A Warning From History
Series 1 and 2 of the Battlefield Series

Edit: Ohh how could I forget:

Allies At War (I think it was called) - a fascinating 3-part documentary on the relationships between Churchill, DeGaulle and Roosevelt.

There's an old series called Battleline which tells of battles from the viewpoint of two men, one from each side. Very good material.
I have a series called WWII Marines At War.
I have WWII w Walter Cronkite.

And a couple of dozen other big name series like World at War, and Victory at Sea, and Crusade in Europe.
