Peter Jackson’s They Shall Not Grow Old
BBC 2 - 9:30 - Sunday night
Must watch I believe
Talking to Peter when he first came up with the idea (cc @ironmoth) he was heel bent on showing the true horror of trench warfare. I hope he pulled it off.
The greatest waste of human life ever - dressed up as battling evil / for freedom in more recent times as an after effect of WW2. WW1 was nothing of the sort - royal cousins sending the peasants/ working class off to be slaughtered for the sake of their royal egos.
90% of the British and Irish men that fought didnt even have a vote ffs ! I

The scummy scouse bastards have a long association with British imperialism - The kop is a testament to that.

Not sure how correct this is. Like in most wars officers are targeted.
Documentary on the other night saying that there was such a scarcity of officers that young officers of 17 were commanding 40 year old troops.
What?
