Title says it all. A good film about the English Civil War (honestly)
Some nice examples of the 'pike push' in the battle sequences.
EDIT: oopps; should have said UK area reception only.

There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Re: Cromwell CH4 this Wednesday
This was on only a few months ago, I think; possibly late last year...
It is an excellent film, nevertheless...

Missed it.
Will keep a look out for repeats on More4.
We all learn from experience. Unfortunately we don't all learn as much as we should.

I missed it too... I was on a day out at Stirling Castle...

Oh yes, the museum of the battalion formerly known as the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders had plenty of kilts, swords and fluffy hats. It was awfy windy, the tourists below might have got a shock...Of course you were DM! That is just so you.

Although I never have quite managed that Edinburgh accent... I decided to stick to my native middle-class Dundonian...

Re: Cromwell CH4 this Wednesday
You mean the movie from 1970 with Richard Harris as Cromwell and Sir Alec Guinness as Charles I? I've seen that before. Don't remember the battle scenes though.
