The Grenadier Guards – scarlet tunics and bearskin helmets, Trooping the Colour, guarding the Queen and her royal palaces. My son came home from London with a Grenadier tunic, which sparked off our interest in finding out the history behind it. This DVD shows the huge amount of training and hard work that goes into a royal ceremony alongside the cruel reality of war as the Grenadiers go to Afghanistan to fight for their country. If you like the pomp and pageantry that the British do so well, you’ll enjoy looking behind the scenes in this three part documentary.
