In this Remembrance Day episode, we join Sir Tony Robinson to uncover the first day of the Battle of the Somme, from the perspective of five men from the Sheffield ‘Pals’ Battalion. Known in history to be one of the largest and bloodiest battles of World War 1, we recount its first 24 hours by tracing the Pals’ real story, visiting key sites and the families of those affected.
