The other day on channel 5 I caught the last part of an ad which was about the Falklands War. I think their showing a few programmes this friday (11th). Anyone else able to confirm this.

Ratso, Somewhere on all this MF (Military Forums) you have stated that you did not know things were happening on TV as you were always on the net and you didn't have a paper.
By heck have things other than the web started to be looked at?
In the coming programmes on Chn 5 ( Just got it cos I've got Sky) starting Friday is a 3 parter about FI.

Whats the odds on that it was all done by the Paras and the RM's were only in a supporting role?!?

Any bookies out there giving any odds

Sorry Yorkie you got it wrong Spielberg has just released his latest film 'The Yank in Stanley'....A true account of how a single troop of American Army Catering Corps won the war for us by serving Argintinian Corned Beef to the Argi's.
Must have been the 20,000 tins the fleet threw overboard on the trip South.....
