28th May 8pm channel 5 - Tunnels of death: The big dig

[AMMOTECHXT]

I was just looking through tonight's TV in the Radio Times and saw the above programme listed: `The excavation of First World War battlefields near Messines in Belgium continues with the discovery of a cupboard full of German stick grenades and a case of machine-gun `bullets' (quote).' This will be repeated on Thursday 30th May at 11.10 am. I won't be able to see either and am not able to record it (unless there is some kind of `see-it-again' facility on the internet?) but I thought some of you out there might be interested in seeing it. I just checked the MLRS Books Ltd site and by coincidence they have recently published a reprint of a mining and demolitions book from that time. The price is 20 as a book or 10 as a CD.

I missed the first one but heard good reports about it. Might have to take Thursday off work.....

Just in case you missed it, complete with adverts.

Thanks, I managed to see the 1st & 2nd episodes via the `see-it-again' thing. The adverts were a nuisance but the programmes were good.
