Default doco

That doco showed some restored WW2 German tanks driving around .. probably Bovington.....the smoke from the exhaust pipes was startling to say the least.

They also showed the running Matilda 1 ..which I think has a later more modern engine fitted . I have another doco somewhere, they interview a chap who was in the BEF in those things.. they were blown to bits by the Germans in quick time .. lightly armed with just a machine gun ..no main gun at all.

Thankyou Ryan, and yes Mike that footage of the Matilda 1 was probably the highlight of the show.

Cheers
