Ensemble Cast

Heroes of the Somme uses original archives from the Western Front to uncover the stories of seven of the men whose remarkable bravery in 1916 won them the Victoria Cross, Britain's most prized military medal. Interviews with modern day family members reveal the personal stories of each character, exploring the differing fortunes they experienced, and the variety of reasons for which they fought.

Live from New York does what no other book about the show has ever done: It lets the people who were there tell the story in their own words, blunt and loving and uncensored.
