Tankies: Tank Heroes of World War II

[chalkyw]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but I've just finished watching a 2 part series on the BBC iplayer called 'Tankies: Tank Heroes of World War II' which follows the 5th Royal Tank Regiment through WW2. Its got some great video of all the British AFV's that served with the regiment including enemy actions as well as first hand testimony from Veterens. Well worth a watch if you can.

heres the link http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01pyjf ... des/player.

I'm not sure if members outside the UK can view on the BBC iplayer but hopefully you can.
Just thought I'd share
Cheers

EDIT: Forgot to say there's also stuff on Axis forces and tanks as well The first programme goes from North Africa through to Sicily and the second is D-Day onwards.

I saw the second one on tv but missed the first one. BBC iPlayer doesn't work in Ireland due to rights issues but we can receive all BBC channels for free.
