This award-winning factual series draws on a unique collection of one hundred interviews with World War One veterans in which the soldiers and their loved ones relive all the heroism and heartbreak of the years from 1914 to 1918. Most of these men had never been interviewed before or since. All the voices are now silent.
In the summer of 1916 there were high hopes of a big push, a breakthrough that would end the war. But the Battle of the Somme ended in stalemate and tragedy. By November 1916 150,000 troops had lost their lives on the Western Front.
