When the guns fell silent- The end of WW1
This is the first time when Bladrick hasn't said a "cunning" plan. Even he knew his plan wouldn't work this time.
The only major problem I have with this repaint is that there is absolutely no ground cork. All WW2 era m1 pots were textured using ground cork to take away the shine of the paint. And while there were the od 3 shade nets the od 7 ones were a lot more common, unless you have photograph evidence of the war correspondents using that net.
REALLY EPICAL!!
Saw Dummies guide and I was in! 😂👌
That final scene. The beautiful countryside. The birds singing. The field of poppies. The peace. That hits different.
I just observed a two minute silence at a Midlands retail park. Disgusted to see people not observing and just driving their cars in and out and chatting and getting on with their day. Hope they realise this and are embarrassed by their behaviour.....
Thank you for this story! Do you know its origins?
Unsure of the name of the plane but I know it belonged to the 91st Bomb Group based at RAF Bassingbourn, England.
Nice vid, bit quiet though 😄👍
Calm
my favorite game❤
Nice one! 👌
First person to mention their father or grandfather will get a kick in crotch unexpectedly.
I know it’s very heroic to go over the top to fight the enemy, but trench warfare is just a stupid way to fight a war, it’s just we hi has the biggest weapons and the most troops No wonder they said it was hero’s led by donkeys The officer class has a lot to answer for It would be good if politicians were actually in the forces and fought in a war, they wouldn’t be so in favour of it
War is never fair. It's the fact of life.
All that ammonium nitrate made it a lush oasis 😂😂😂
Haha nice one, gaming channel now too. Did u get into COD then? 😊
Quite enjoyed it to be fair. Might do a gaming vid every other Saturday maybe. They’re fun to make and easy to edit
bro did not say lochnager 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

goated game❤
The Boy Stirling is quite mad. Quite, quite mad.
All that misery, suffering and death All for nothing
The first time i watched this it left an impression on me that has never left me !!!🇬🇧
Wheres the webcam gone?? 😀 Very intuitive again though.....I'm picking up a little more each vid keep em coming 😊👌
Wanted this one to be about the history- not me. It will be back this week though 😅. Glad your learning something 👍🏼
The disrespect this series shows to those who fought is beyond belief. The officers died fighting. Check out the data.
You're a loon with a wacko opinion, just so you know. This show is an absolute classic, and I've never met a uniformed serviceman (officer, enlisted or otherwise) who had a negative opinion of the portrayal. The most controversial portrayal is Melchett (Stephen Fry's character) , who while over the top and played for laughs, represents a very real archetype that was present at the time. Oxbridge grads never interacted socially with the lower classes, so when they were thrust into close proximity by war, there were some (read: a lot) of classist bigotry. This is hardly the first film to address the topic. Melchett was also a general, so he wouldn't have been going over the top anyway. In this clip, you'll notice that Blackadder (Rowan Atkinson) was a captain, and actually did go over the wall, as did Hugh Laurie's character, playing a lieutenant.
did we watch the same clip? rowan atkinson’s character is the captain!
Bet you're fun at parties.
Try actually watching the clip: better still, watch the whole series, you unutterable berk.
The data? Who are you talking about?
Its surprisingly sad
How surprising is it boob?
Maybe he should learn to use more words than just fuck
i have watched this so many times and it still affectes me. it just shows how stupid the top brass were in ordering the men to go over the top knowing that the germans were waiting to gun them down. their mentality was we have more men so we must win. the youth of of europe were cut down in their millions for no good purpose such a waste. rip.
That's Russian thinking through the ages. Amazing it is still going on.
rubbish - you are a victim of left wing propaganda. Try reading.
А русские то тут причём???)))@@HeimirTomm

i have been to that crater, i rolled down a hill next to it and got a thorne stuck up my bum
Chills down the spin ! Don't have a ounce of music in my soul but these folks just wake me up !

Long Range Desert Group needs their own show.
My grandad fought in the Great War and my uncle died of his wounds on the Somme and the ending made me realise just what they went through and I’m not ashamed to say it made me cry
My dads father (grandad) fought and was taken prisoner at a town called Arras, France. Not far, and to the northeast of Agincourt! My grandmas brothers were less fortunate, not all of them made it back. My grandad returned a broken man, he couldn’t stand any loud noise.

One of the most poignant endings for a comedy series
Still gets me 😢
Spooky! 😮
I believe places like this were, in their prime, key parts of the desert trade routes. Caravans would come through these outposts to resupply and have a safe place to offload their goods and get a decent rest in without having to contend with the conditions outside, while also being able to trade with other caravans and local supporting merchants before they reached their destination city.

I always thought market garden was where I went for my bedding plants and 25lb of potatoes 😂 Nah well done was really interesting listening...think i might just learn something here 😀👌
The music is exactly why i never watched this
Your loss. It's a great series.
damn , I love how they parked their jeeps in the city of fucking nowhere
Ugh, this series was about school girls who bicker and stare mean looks at each other. The show has all the fighting done between the men. They love each other then hate each other, then they're heart broken and cruel to each other. The Germans get off easy. And they spend more time reading poetry, and pining for their lost boyfriends than fighting a war.
possibly the dumbest shit ive seen in weeks.. you must be a soy latte drinker
Sounds like fucking Hastings lol
One reason to turn up the volume, it's worth it.
I saw this today fly over lake windemere, was very cool

Rommel saw the desert as an ocean of sand and his army as a Fleet. If I''m not mistaken - these guys saw themselves as pirates ... .
