Nice Video!! Love ww1 history! it was a very moving and interesting war!!!

[@COLEEN322]

excellent video and this must have been filmed some years ago as the sunken road as of today has been rather stripped back somewhat which is a shame really

jesus shaves Thank you for taking the time to comment. It was made in 1997 as part of our personal record .

Is there any indication where the tunnel entrance was in the sunken lane

Hello BW. Sorry for being late. Appropriately, rapidly approaching 11:00 on 11/11/17. I understand that all of the men in Malin's Sunken Road film, died a few minutes later. Interesting video. "We Will Remember Them"

It's a small point, but it's Argyll, not Argyle. That's a pattern.

If you read German accounts it actually was a rather close run thing - Germans were close to insanity after 7 days of continuous bombardment and apparently it is not THAT easy to shoot 10,000-20,000 machine gun rounds - the machinery heats up immensely and there was no way to cool it - machine-gunners had terrible hand and face wounds from continuous firing and generally the BIGGEST unexpected luck for the Germans was that the English came in at a slow walking pace, allowing them the precious few extra SECONDS to crawl up from the dugouts and man the guns.
