Band of Brothers

On BBC2 now - it's the episode where they liberate the concentration camp.

Lest we forget. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

The book by Stephen Ambrose is really good as well. Although the series follows the book very closely. He has written several more books regarding WW2 -- they are a good read, but do tend to be a bit biased.

There are some interesting bits of trivia regarding the making of the series to be found on the IMDB website too:

Germany 2008 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Auto Java BlackDiscovery 3

"Day of Days" I visited the field at Brecourt Manor where the action took place, found the German trench line and subsequently got zapped by an electric fence (much to the delight of my colleagues). Knowledge & Reason - the arch enemy of faith

MY2008, Java Black TDV6 HSE, Alpaca with straight grain Wood, 19" alloys, fully loaded with all the toys Smile

Discovery 3, you know it makes sense.
