D-Day to Berlin

[minter]

just a reminder to set the old video for wed 20th april bbc1 9pm -10pm for D-Day to Berlin usind dramatised reconstructions a bit like the dunkirk one a while ago. Seen some trailers and looks good, especially the Tiger firing up a sunken normandy lane.And the other good thing is that they are including british troops,NOT just Americans

Mint's... Dam good call sir!!!

I woul dnot have known that this was on unless you had posted. Don't watch much TV at the mo..... :D Wonder why? :D

Thanks awfully fella!! ;)

[minter]

no probs, i will probably forget to tape it now :rolleyes: anyway what with all this computer generated stuff can make things look very authentic, although i think the tiger looked real though.........just one thing it isspread over 3 weeks so i nearly always forget, i did that with the bomber thing :rolleyes:

Hopefully they used the worlds only working Tiger, which is at the The Tank Museum in Bovington (http://www.tiger-tank.com/). I saw it running last year and it is a beast!!! They most probaly used the converted T-34 'Tiger' from 'Saving private Ryan'.

dont know about that, but out of interest what ones did they use in saving private ryan?, and come to think of it a tiger they used was parked outside my local cinema,but dont know if it could move under its own steam as it was on a flat bed lorry

[minter]
