What would you expect ? This 180 minutes (2 hour) long documentary which is written & presented by the well known historian / author Peter Barton. He has thoroughly researched the factual details from both German and British war / regimental archives. On a slightly negative point I found that I could not watch it all in one viewing, but have taken three sessions because there is so much detail and information given as the presenter takes you around the various locations on the battlefield. Well worth the money for anyone who is at least interested in the Great War, especially the battle of the Somme.

Why no one before has made a film giving both sides of the battle beats me. This is the best documentary on exactly what happened and why. It really is an eye opener who thought they knew the facts on this famous and bloody battle. Recommended.
