Wohoo. Just got the Band of Brothers Box set

Joy :smiley:

Can’t wait to get home tonight. Very nice metal box and presentation. Docu with the actual Easy Company and more.

Episodes like Bastogne and The Last Patrol made me re-look at how I viewed WWII vets. Classic program.

Private: We’ll be surrounded sir!
Major: We’re paratroopers son, we’re meant to be surrounded

An excellent show.

I’ve been watching the repeats on recently, and I didn’t realise just how many of the actors are British. Damian Lewis, Dexter Fletcher (from Press Gang), even Simon Pegg (from Spaced and Big Train). I was even debating whether the chap who played Pvt Blithe was the same actor who plays Gareth in The Office (it wasn’t).

Looked up to The Last Patrol lastnight. Eight hours of BofB.

Bit tired today :wink: Great to see it in DVD quality widescreen. Looking forward to the extras next were I get to meet the real guys.

My copy is waiting for me at the post office and I can’t make time to go get it until Saturday … I’m dying it pick it up.
