You might be interested in this if you haven't seen the ads for it yet.

Why Britain Wins Every War. Sky History, Weds at 9pm. The ad features Al Murray and Henning Berg, but I don't know if they are regulars or not.

Trailer here:

Thanks Chris, that's not the trailer I saw, but gives more information than I had. (Plus, actually got the show's title correct!)

[Buenchico]

Somehow I suspect that the series might not get bought by American TV for showing on the 4th of July ;-)

Henning Berg? The Norwegian footballer?

[THECORBYLOON]

For all his tv appearances, it's all been in Wehn...

[sanmac]

Is this included in "Why Britain Wins Every War"?

[Mozz71]

Jim- //Henning Berg? The Norwegian footballer?//

Whoops! Yeah, I meant Henning Wehn. I'm clearly.still stuck in 1994.

[tonyav]

Good player though, Mozz.

sanmac, the Battle of New Orleans was grossly unfair. A peace treaty had already been signed but the news hadn't got down to the bayous yet. Before that, the British had burnt the White House - or what would become the White House once they repainted it - and the president had to flee Washington with his slaves.

Only because they never declared war on Emu's

[Googlewerenohelp]

Emu's ...what? (What, belonging to the emu?)

Googlewerenohelp when it came to autocorrect.

Note to self, more proof reading is required to ensure I appear slightly literate

[ToraToraTora]

why would I be interested? I know history.

[ToraToraTora]

...and why have you changed avatar to one almost the same?

[Mozz71]

Because you're the one who repeatedly posted the Al Murray Britain beating every other nation at war routine. I thought it may be up your street.

And what the hell has my avatar change got to do with you? I'll have whatever I choose thanks.

[Tilly2]

Don't know why you bothered Mozz. :-)

[Mozz71]

No, me neither Tilly. Well, I know not to in future I guess.

[Mozz71]

Well, I didn't get to see what words of wisdom Tora left me with then, but judging by it's swift deletion, it was with his customary kindness and good grace. :-D

[ToraToraTora]

it was not rude, like many removals I do not understand why it was removed.
