    Me and my husband have a similar arrangement we don't fight before noon. Works well tbh.

    Wow. Somebody *actually* speaking German instead of merely pretending to...

      Yeah! I'm pretty sure that particular actor is a real expat German. He appears in other Australian shows as a German. "The Lighthorse" from 1989 is one.

    Given all the knowledge we have of WW1 this scene pretty much sums parts of the Western Front brilliantly. A new officer not in touch with the reality at the front = bad bad bad. Mostly for the rank and files who are the ones shelled.

    Everyone outside of the officer newbie knows how pointless the war is LOL

    "We only get shot at by arrangement"

    Seems like a civilized arrangement to me, there's always a bloody spoilsport!

    Young buck butter bar wet behind a year. This is the kinda attitude that will get this 2nd Lieutenant killed in the first 20 minutes of battle.

    this has got to be one of my favorite war series. the LT ends up being stand up guy

    Much too clean for a 1917 trench. Fill it up halfway to the knees with water and filth, vermin and bugs, and you'd be close.

    • @reevemclennan949
      @reevemclennan949  7 років тому +778

      It's simply called "The Anzacs". I a pretty sure all full episodes are on UA-cam. last I looked anyway

    Um, aren't the men supposed to inform new officers of standing orders?
    Funny clip, though.

    Creature comforts and human needs beget diplomacy. Patriotism supercedes both.

    This is why i like ww1 such things could happend so many times especially between the british and the germans just like on christmass when they met and played football.
    Sadly we can t see such things in modern wars.
