D-Day: The Unheard Tapes
Season 1 Episode 2 of 3
Hundreds of thousands of Allied troops land on five beaches along the Normandy coast - as told by those who were there in interviews lip-synced by actors. Powerful interviews with those who were there lead us through their story of the invasion as it unfolds. American soldiers on Omaha face a bloodbath, while Royal Marine commandos encounter chaos at Sword Beach. As night draws in, troops finally make it off the sand - but the threats ahead prove even greater
D-Day: The Unheard Tapes airs on RTE One at 11:30 PM, Wednesday 26 June. (Subtitles.)
