The Victoria Cross: For Valour

Bush Tucker Man:
Did anyone see (& record) this programme last Saturday evening?
It was on BBC between 20:00 & 21:00, the presenter was Jeremy Clarkson


Now before anyone says that 'Jezza' immediately puts them off watching anything, think again.......

He 'does' documentary extremely well.

Think of his impassioned plea for Isambard Kingdom Brunel when Auntie Beeb had the Greatest Britain contest a few years ago.

Obviously he has a personal interest in the last VC winner he mentioned (Major Robert Cain), as in the closing minute he revealed that Cain was his father-in-law



So now the plea  :roll:

I missed it this time around & have lost my tape of it, so........ did anyone record it onto; VHS, DVD, hard-drive & is willing to provide me with a copy (for suitable recompense of course)

Please

(unless you know if it's re-appearing on BBC 3, or BBC4)

By The Way;
There's an excellent interview with Lt/C Johnson Beharry in the 'Yorkshire Post'[/i] this morning
(not available on the 'YP' website yet)
