I don't know whether anyone else saw this but Dennis Silk, Old Blue and contemporary of some regular posters here, was featured recalling his friendship with Siegfried Sassoon and read from his poems.
He was obviously deeply moved by the experience and remembering his old friend.
Reference was also made to Edmund Blunden poet, author and Old Blue.
The programme is available on BBC I player for 7 days should you wish to catch up.
