Summary

Al Murray and James Holland return to the streets of Arnhem, where the battle intensifies. The chaos deepens as the British forces, now reinforced by the South Staffords, face relentless German counterattacks. XXX Corps' delayed arrival adds to the uncertainty, while Frost’s men at the bridge fight desperately to hold their ground. Will they manage to secure Arnhem, or is it already too late? Dive into the heart of the conflict as the battle for the bridge rages on. Join us as we explore the triumphs and tragedies of one of World War 2's most famous battles, immortalised in the 1977 epic 'A Bridge Too Far' - Operation Market Garden.
