Tv Alert Uk ch4 D Day Guy Martin doc

This is story telling rather than the World in Action documentary or the news. Brevity is not the aim so the device of a modern day journey part re creation is needed to keep interest .Just to create this film required a determination to keep Guy included, such as the French para drop sequence and having to pay for a huge scaffolding build when MOD refused to let Guy step on their training rig. And there were elements of real hazards without being fired on.

Not a bad effort, but yet again suffered from the hackneyed “will he/won’t he?” jeopardy that these muppet producers feel is necessary nowadays. A 2-hour on Night Fright documentary might be nice, judging by what must have been left on the cutting room floor.

But did the Wermarch shoot at him?

WELL WORTH WATCHING ON REPEAT More 4 channel.
