| Summary: | The double BAFTA-winning series returns to mark the end of the British involvement in Afghanistan. As the final British troops prepare to leave Helmand with no clear victory in sight, these films tell the story of the bloodiest war Britain has fought since the Second World War from the perspective of the soldiers who found themselves fighting on the front line. The campaign in Afghanistan has been documented like no other modern conflict, filmed on video cameras by young soldiers, recording the war as only they could see it. Combining this remarkable footage with interviews with the soldiers involved, this series tells the whole story of this modern war from their viewpoint. |
