I found the main theme very haunting
they set the bench mark too high when the series was made, it is well edited and the Narration is excellent.

I can recomend another series "Nazi's a warning from history" it is on par with the World at war

Just started watching the world at war, i see what you mean about the music, although very appropriate, i have never heard of the Nazi's a warning before so i will have to look out for it  8)

Hi Keith a couple of new films out I saw tanks in are defiance their is a Panzer III in a scene near the end and valkyrie it has a couple of panzers at the start but they are not real cardboard cut outs the give away is the width of the tracks look more like tiger tracks.

Hi Stevie i did see Defience and the panzer III but still not seen Valkyrie yet although i do really want to see it, i did watch the original 1976 Inglorious Bastards last weekend and there are plenty of half tracks and trucks in it but no tanks, this weekend i will be watching Wheels Of Terror as recommended by Tony so will let you all know how that is soon.  ;D

LOL  ;D  I dont think i can bring myself to watch that even if it does have a stug in it  ;D ;D  I did watch the new Vin Diesel film the other night called "Babylon AD" and there are some good shots of russian tanks driving about and a armoured troop carrier with a really cool interior, im not to clued up on russian armour but maybe somebody that is should watch this film and shed a bit more light on it, the film is pretty good as well  ;D
