draganm Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Watched the 4 episodes of this on Netlfix, set in Latvia , 4 amateurs excavate German and Soviet battlefield sites from the front that eventually resulted in the Kurland pocket. It's not really archeology in the true sense of the word, However I learned a lot about that part of the war I didn't know, especially in episode 4, ( and maybe a lot of people didn't know ) About the killing of German settlers in reprisal attacks. however, this scathing article and it's criticisms are also true. http://thepipeline.info/blog/2016/01/10/review-battlefield-recovery-clearstory-productions-for-channel-5/ Anyone else see this, what do you think or feel about the show?

I watched this a few months back, and felt a bit uneasy about it but found it interesting all the same. In retrospect though I think that article is spot on! Hopefully we wont see another series...
