BBC2 9PM 6th Jan 2008
My cousin is on TV showing the hidden wartime site he found in northern France.
Hope he makes some serious £££ out of this find.

Which is right after The Best of Top Gear probably a repeat from new years day.

Looks like it'll be worth a watch, and an interesting find for your cousin.
I'm sure he's pleased to have made the find, rather than thinking about the possible financial rewards.

Lets hope he does, and donates a fair proportion to the armed services charities like;
Help for Heroes - A charity for the wounded in Britain’s current conflicts

Watched this, was very interesting - quite mad that so many years later someone can unearth all those defences that people had just forgotten were there !
Bet the Americans werent too happy about the prog though - sort of typical for them in warfare - go running in gung ho with lots of shouting and high fives, but **** it up and cause unneeded loss of life. What did they say the real figure was ? something close to 5000 in 3 hours ?
Had their bombing run been in the right place, then the troops could have strolled up the beach uncontested and most of those kids would have made it back home safely.
