Now DiG, since when is WWI simpering girly stuff?
War and love have always gone hand in hand. Think GI Brides, Dear John letters after quick weddings before "he" goes off to do his bit for King and Country... Part of the survival mechanism of the human race.
Would love to see this 2-parter. Was talking to mum about it yesterday -by coincidence she had just started reading the book and is then going to let me borrow it as it's one I haven't read yet.
Has anyone seen it yet? Is it worth watching?
