  1. Excellent series and a great book. All episodes based on fact. The guy was an embedded reporter from Rolling Stone. Watched it first time round and the re-watched when it was repeated even better the second time round.

  2. Its on Sky Movies HD.

     

    Dont know when its coming to "normal" channels..

    Sky Movies Premiere (not only on HD). Good idea its on Sky Movies ,no advertising breaks, no annoying logos in corner of the screen.

    Starts at Easter.

  3. For a Japanese view on the bombing of Hiroshima and the immediate days following it, seen through the eyes of a boy called Gen, have a look at a series of manga books called Hadashi no Gen (Barefoot Gen) which have been made into films.

    Wiki has some more details on both the books and films
