    Yes indeed, by John Burrowes. It was thoroughly researched with details new to me.

    High quality crisp footage, with good analysts. Try not to be put off with the subtitles from some of them.

    I won't cheers m8. Looking forward to it. Weirdly enough Alba have tiny budget but put decent stuff on shame BBC as a whole doesn't give such value for money lol
