    The Victoria Cross: For Valour

    21:00 BBC 2 tonight.

    Jeremy Clarkson's presenting it, and it's about a Manxman - Major Cain, who won the VC for his efforts during the battle of Arnheim.

    Major Cain was the Grandfather of Clarkson's wife (heard that on local tin-pot radion this morning ), so it should be quite good.

    Very interesting programme indeed, enyjoyed every minute it of it and learned a fair few things along the way as well. Very well presented I thought for the most of it.

    I also watched it, was really really good. I dint know anything about it at all, I even managed to getmy g/f to sit and watch it and by the end she was really interested as well.

    kinda makes it worthwhile to buy a TV license.... maybe.
