We take the podcast across to Northern France and visit Loos British Cemetery on the battlefields of 1915, seeing the new Extension that has been constructed here, looking at the initial burials and asking how this brand new cemetery might develop over the coming years.

  1. Another excellent episode Paul – didn’t even get out of bed this morning before listening!

    Be great to see how this develops – it must be very satisfying to those who have championed the cause of those with no known grave over the years to see the importance now placed on any discovery of remains.

  2. Thanks for another great episode Paul. As always, I appreciate your Canadian discussions. You promote the contributions of Canadians, during the First World War, more than any person I know. Thank you for your continued research.

  4. Thanks for an excellent podcast Paul, which is also a great reminder of my recent “Forgotten Battlefields” trip with Tim. The fact the new cemetery is the size of a football pitch poignantly bears out your frequent comment that the last page of the history of the Great War will never be written.
