Ah, now then. I watch very little TV and am completely oblivious to the faces, names and personalities of today's celebrities - if indeed modern role models HAVE personalities! Most of my viewing is therefore either recommendations or stuff I stumble across by accident. "Our World War" is one of the latter. A "Tense combat drama series revealing experiences of British soldiers in World War One," it has based on actual reports, diaries, interviews and accounts. Typically well made by the BBC, the action is interspersed with modern style IR overhead footage showing the deployment of troops to better understand the tactics and 'helmet cam' footage on occasion, both of which take a little getting used to. Anyhow, I have watched the first episode and thoroughly enjoyed it so can recommend it to all. The first 3 episodes are available on the BBC iplayer at the following link
