BBC - bound to try and make you feel guilty just for being white and British because someone who was white and British did something decades before you were even born.

Well spotted Ray.

Interesting to hear about a different part of WW1.

Lot at present about WW1 in Europe with the commemorations for the end of the war next year and the various bits for the Armistice day remembered.

Many thanks, Ray (and also for the email heads-up) - it is very good of you to highlight such shows for the rest of us.

I was too busy working to catch today's programme, but presumably I can catch it again on the BBC website somewhere.

Sean Clark

Yes thanks for this Ray. I notice you provide a similar service on the BAD wargames web page. Very grateful. I will catch it on iPlayer asap.
