Berlin is a 2009 documentary series co-developed by the BBC and the Open University. Written and presented by Matt Frei, the series has three 60-minute episodes, each dealing with a different aspect of the history of Germany's capital city.
Using the life and posthumous legacy of Frederick the Great as its central theme, this episode covers some of the most notable political, social and cultural movements to emerge within Berlin over the past two centuries.
From the advent of the former Berliner Stadtschloss to the Palast der Republik which for a time took its place, from the creation of the Bauakademie to that of the Olympic Stadium, and from the rise of the Fernsehturm to the rejuvenation of the Reichstag, this episode looks at the varied periods of construction, destruction and renewal seen in the architecture of the city of Berlin.
Turning to look at the legacy which history has placed upon the people of Berlin – and that which Berliners themselves have offered in turn – this episode charts the tumultuous eras which the city has endured, for good or ill, through the course of the 19th and 20th centuries.
This is a list of notable people with the surname Berlin.

When you try your best
But you don't succeed
When you get what you want
But not what you need
When you feel so tired
But you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come
Streaming down your face
When you lose something
You can't replace
When you love someone
But it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above earth
Or down below
When you're too in love
To let it go
But if you never try
You'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down on your face
When you lose something
You cannot replace
Tears stream down on your face and I
I will try
(Tears stream)
I will try
(Down on your face)
I promise you I will
Learn from my mistakes
I will try
(Tears stream)
I will try
(Down on your face and I)
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
