Just caught the end of one about 'Operation Tiger' which was basically a dress rehearsal for D Day and took place off the coast of Devon in April 1944. Bit of a disaster would be an understatement. There seems to be a cover up over the exact number of casualties. Officially 749 American soldiers died when one ship was torpedoed. One ship broke down prior to that attack and it looks like up to 300 soldiers were transferred to the ship that was later sunk. When they actually landed on the beach 200 more were killed by friendly fire.
The true number may actually have been 1,405.

What was it called mate?
 

Seen three decent ones lately, best of which was...............
Cartel land... Filmed in Mexico and is about a vigilante force who hunt Cartel members and distribute there own version of justice. Brutal at times but a thoroughly enjoyable eye opener into the violence which has plagued Mexico for the last 10 years. 8.5/10

Valley Uprising ... which is about Rock Climbing in Yosemite National park and how the sport and its followers have evolved over the last 50 years. Sounds a bit dull but very watchable as it involves climbing and also there clashes with the authorities and tourists as well as with each other over status as the best climbers. Amusing when a Colombian plane which was loaded with Weed crashes ontop of a mountain killing the pilots and the ensuing race to the top to claim the Weed. My type of fellas. 8/10

Murder In The Park... Strangely enough about a murder in a park and the subsequent series of events which lead to all kinds of shenanigans in the justice system resulting in a man being released from Death Row.... but was he guilty after all and is an innocent man now sitting in his place? 7.5/10
