Hi BB I remember there being a documentary by BBC Northern Ireland called "We Fought on D-Day". Not sure if that's the one you mean or if it's available to buy. BBC - Press Office - We Fought On D-Day
hi rjl,thank you for answering me,that is the one I was referring to,I had seen on another forum which I am not a member off,that it could be purchased as one member was telling another member how to purchase it,but was going to do so through a PM,so I guess Im outta luck,was really hoping some member could help on this,it would have meant so much.
Here's the website of the company that made it. Might be worth contacting them. BBC NI | DoubleBand Films WE FOUGHT ON D- DAY – 2004 Using rare archive footage and stunning eye witness interviews, We Fought On D-Day recounts the previously untold stories of men from Northern Ireland – our own Band of Brothers – who fought for the beaches, towns and villages of Normandy on 6th June 1944 – D- Day.
thanks Owen I have sent them an e mail so hopefully I will hear from them,thanks for your input on this thread,as I know how busy you must be.B/B
Hi Is there any way I could get hold of a copy to post on my 2 RUR website? 2nd Battalion Royal Ulster Rifles in WW2: Video I had a link to i-Player previously but was taken down before I thought to rip it. I've contacted the BBC but they were useless and just said "may be back on iPlayer some time in the future" so would greatly appreciate a copy if available. Merry Christmas!
Seems Santa was busy over Christmas and video has now appeared on website at: 2nd Battalion Royal Ulster Rifles in WW2: Video but no idea how it got there or how long it will stay for........
Hi Quis Separabit Not WW2 vintage but when my father passed he left me a couple of photo albums of his time in Cyprus in the late 50's verus EOKA guerillas. Royal Ulster Rifles in Cyprus 1957/58
Thanks for posting the link to that video, I've been trying to catch up with that for a while now, even contacted the original production company only to be ignore! I've downloaded a copy to my hard drive and watched it this morning. Great stuff indeed!
