8.05 Timewatch A Very British Mutiny. In September 1943,
191 men from Montgomery's 8th Army-who had helped to drive Rommel's troops out of Africa - refused to take part in the Allied fight for Salerno, Italy.
Interviews, reconstructions and previously classified documents show how errors forced the soldiers into a predicament that caused their war pensions to be reduced, their medals reclaimed and their honour questioned.
