Episode Description
What happened to the animals who served in the First World War?
Uncover the extraordinary story of Warrior the war horse who survived the Western Front. General Jack Seely's horse, Warrior, was anything but ordinary. He carried his master through some of World War One's most brutal battles, including the Somme, Ypres and Passchendaele.
Despite more than eight million horses, donkeys and mules losing their lives during the war, Warrior somehow survived.
Join General Jack Seely's grandson and broadcaster, Brough Scott and historian, James Grasby, to retrace Warrior's incredible journey.
