On tonight folks...9pm-10.30pm
Soz, cant find a trailer....
Behind-the-scenes footage of the Iraq war is revealed in this exclusive 90-minute documentary.Filmmakers travelled to the arid desert of Basra to join British
forces on the ground. They watched as our 4000-strong Army rapidly
diminished over the course of March to the end of May this year.
Extraordinary stories of soldiers become real as they speak openly
about the the ordeals, trials and emotional stress they endure while
fighting. No soldier is untouched by their experiences in Iraq.
What do they really feel? What is it like to be fighting every day
for months and months at a time. Do they believe in what they are
fighting for? These are the ever-present issues they are forced to
question.
In the frankest interviews to date, soldiers from regiments, 5
Rifles and B Company explain candidly what life is like on the front
line and explain how they feel about how they are perceived by the
British public at home.
Shot with footage of action on the ground and archive material it is
the closest a civilian will get to understanding the other side. With
so many news and media reports, this is a chance to give the soldiers
their own voice.
The film is an emotional history of the troops' journey which so
many other soldiers have fought and died for since the invasion six
years ago.
Watch their side of the story.
