The Battle of Waterloo

on BBC Two England

by KEITH DEWHURST
The first in a series of five plays Live from Pebble Mill
For the infantrymen, old hands and raw recruits, 36 hours of forced march and a night in pouring rain are followed by a day in a muddy cornfield, facing cannon, cavalry, and infantry. If they're still standing as the day ends, they've won.
