Max Hastings, former Daily Telegraph Editor, is one of Britain’s greatest military historians and the author of over 30 award-winning books. He tells the gripping story of the most thrilling British Special Forces raid of the Second World War and perhaps the most successful – the 1942 parachute assault on the cliffs of Bruneval, Normandy to steal Hitler’s radar secrets which had for years baffled RAF intelligence.

Join him for a breathtaking journey from the War Room of Churchill and Mountbatten to boots-on-ground action in Occupied France, as he tells the tale of a remarkable triumph against heavy German fire that changed the course of the War. Seldom have so many fascinating personalities been brought together to fulfil a mission, now almost forgotten, that became a front page triumph in a season of British defeats.
