Pighills Posted 14 May , 2013 Share Posted 14 May , 2013 I see Peter Barton writes, presents and produces it - no excuses then. It should be good! Thanks for the heads up Keith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pighills Posted 15 May , 2013 Share Posted 15 May , 2013 That's what I was thinking, Simon. His talk at the GWF conference was great, and I've always enjoyed his other programmes, so am expecting high things from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarylW Posted 16 May , 2013 Share Posted 16 May , 2013 Thanks for the reminder, I've set Sky box to record. I'll look forward to this, I'm sure it will be fascinating. Peter Barton is one of my favourite Great War TV presenters and not just because he knows what he's talking about but seems to care with a passion for what he's talking about!

eairicbloodaxe Posted 16 May , 2013 Share Posted 16 May , 2013 He also comes across as a very, very nice chap, despite the odd taste in hats! Tivo set. Looking forward to this one a lot. Regards Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NigelS Posted 16 May , 2013 Share Posted 16 May , 2013 Thanks Keith. Looking at BBC4's schedule for that evening, it's a feast of GW related programmes - 20:00 The Flying Archaeologist- "The Thames: Secret War" - Archaeologist Ben Robinson flies over the Thames to uncover new discoveries about WW1, including a network of trenches... Click (I believe that this is the first time this has appeared across the network, having only been broadcast regionally previously & discussed Here 21:00 The main event, the fore mentioned "The Somme: Secret Tunnel War" 22:00 Time watch: The Last Day of World War one" Click 23:00 The First World War from Above Click With, repeated in the early hours of the following morning (Tues 21st): The Flying Archaeologist- "The Thames: Secret War" at 02:30 & "The Somme: Secret Tunnel War" at 03.00 So recorders probably working overtime!

Pighills Posted 16 May , 2013 Share Posted 16 May , 2013 Ooh, thanks for pointing out that line up, didn't bother looking so only set the sky box for Peter's programme, but the rest of them look worthy of watching too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin spof Posted 16 May , 2013 Admin Share Posted 16 May , 2013 I'll skip the First World War from Above but The Last Day of World War One is very good.The Flying Archaeologist sounds interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Hastings Posted 16 May , 2013 Share Posted 16 May , 2013 Thanks Keith / Nigel Recorder all set and looking forward to some great viewing time in the near future Nice to have some worthwhile programmes to watch for a change!!

AlanCurragh Posted 16 May , 2013 Share Posted 16 May , 2013 Anyone who was at the conference this year will now what a brilliant speaker, and thoroughly nice chap Peter is - so this should be a very good programme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pighills Posted 16 May , 2013 Share Posted 16 May , 2013 He is indeed a thoroughly nice chap. Not only did he join in with everyone at the pub the night before and go for a curry with us too, but he also took a lot of time out, at the confernce, to speak to attendees afterwards, which was greatly appreciated.

judy7007 Posted 16 May , 2013 Share Posted 16 May , 2013 He is indeed a thoroughly nice chap... ...he also took a lot of time out, at the confernce, to speak to attendees afterwards, which was greatly appreciated. Being one of those he spoke to afterwards I so agree with all that is being said. I will certainly be watching (or recording). Being away last week and never quite sure how best to remember things (I've tried a number of ways!) and not being able to rush straight to the V+ box, I saw that there was an email facility at the bottom of the reply to topic box and sent myself an email reminder. Very successful! Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithmroberts Posted 16 May , 2013 Author Share Posted 16 May , 2013 Maybe I should have said it sooner - Peter is the Director of the project, but there is a really good team working on it, and he would be the first to give credit to the others. I'm not going to start naming them, because I don't know them all, and would inevitably leave out someone who has contributed a lot, but they are an excellent bunch, all giving their time for nothing to help deliver the project, which still has a long way to go. The project website is well worth a visit for anyone who hasn't seen it. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Banning Posted 17 May , 2013 Share Posted 17 May , 2013 TX Card attached. The BBC website now has a photo gallery and I see they have just added three short video extracts: http://www.bbc.co.uk...rammes/b01skvnh We will add some galleries of images to the La Boisselle Study Group website over the weekend in time for Monday.

spconnolly007 Posted 17 May , 2013 Share Posted 17 May , 2013 Thanks for the link Jeremy. If the short video clip is anything to go by, this is going to be a cracking piece of GW television. I cant wait, and its on my birthday too, what a treat Regards, Sean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin spof Posted 17 May , 2013 Admin Share Posted 17 May , 2013 "If the short video clip is anything to go by, this is going to be a cracking piece of GW television." I couldn't have said it better. Thanks Jeremy for highlighting the clips. Glen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
