 When Britain went to war against the Boers in October 1899, the British public expected the fighting to be over by Christmas.  As it turned out, the Boer War, in Kiplings famous phrase, gave the British no end of a lesson.  Using accounts of the soldiers who fought in this bitter and bloody clash of arms and remarkable contemporary photographs, this programme tells the story of Britains last great Imperial war.
Boer War - A Bitter and Bloody Clash
 The two forces meet on 4th July 1879 at Ulundi. Several thousand Zulus surrounded the British infantry which formed a square with the 17th Lancers at its centre. When the Zulus attack faltered the 17th Lancers were ordered to charge. Reproduced by Permission of the 17th/21st Lancers.
