Very impressive, it just shows what can be done with just 3 people, a few uniforms, weapons and a little CGI...and the backing of the BBC...

I does make you wonder why reenactors would be necesarry in the making of a big moviepicture. If you can do this with 3 men.

I watched the show too, next to the fact I sometimes needed translation, I really enjoyed it.
