BBC Four - Peter and Dan Snow: 20th Century Battlefields, 20th Century Battlefields, 1982 Falklands

Peter and Dan Snow tell the story of the Falklands War.

Peter and Dan Snow tell the story of how the British fought back to regain control of the Falkland Islands after Argentina invaded in 1982.

In 1982, Argentina triggered the last battle on British territory when it invaded the Falkland Islands. Peter and Dan Snow fly 8,000 miles to the South Atlantic to tell the story of how the British Task Force fought back to regain control. 

With his high-tech graphic mapcase, Peter shows the challenges faced by the British, thousands of miles from home. Dan feels the force of the Sea Harrier fighter jets, so crucial to the survival of the British fleet in these icy waters, and goes on a night-fighting training exercise under live fire to experience for himself the tactics used by the British ground troops in their fight to dislodge the Argentinians.
