This engaging documentary is built around a junior officer’s films (mostly colour) shot in India and Burma. It’s available on the iPlayer and online.
I have just watched it and was truly enthralled. A very poignant piece of film making that captures the spirit of a long passed era. It is probably the best documentary film of its kind that I have seen since Home from the Hill, Molly Dineen's film about Hiliary Hook. Having a passionate interest in the India-Burma campaign, this very moving film was a pleasure to watch and I will be watching it again and taking more notes. I thoroughly recommend that you find the time to watch this programme. Harry Birrell. Emergency Commission India Army. 2nd Lt. 17th August 1940.
Clicked on it yesterday, on a whim, found it fascinating. Loved how he supposedly justified using colour film to Army...did he really say that/did they really believe him? Who knows but nice little anecdote.
