Meticulously based on unit war diaries and eye-witness accounts, TOMMIES traces one real day at war exactly 100 years ago.

Indira Varma, Danny Rahim and Avin Shah star in this story which begins on a gunboat making its way up the river Tigris. Signallers Ahmadullah and Zarbab have a perilous mission to deliver a wireless set to beleaguered British forces in Mesopotamia. It proves a particularly gruelling and testing time for Ahmadullah.
