a lot of this is later war footage, no4 enfields, late war uniforms on both sides, later mark german tanks etc, but quite a bit looks like early war stuff.

Nigel... you are ace... I've been looking for pictures of BEF in service dress for ages. There are scenes in there with Royal Artillery guys wearing exactly what I plan to wear at Ariel. 
I most definitely owe you a beer mate! 
and i most definately will drink it.
Yup... even the insignia is what I had worked out I should have... 
You're very welcome to it!
There's a hell of a lot of No4s and stens in there for it all be dunkirk though... lol 
What a horrid bit of revisionism. The BEF was 'The most powerful army on the allied side'? Never. The Americans must still not like the French much? Remember they changed the name of French Fries to 'Freedom Fries'?
That aside much of that footage is computer coloured b/w stock. Dont rely on it for colour reference.
aka Stigroadie
AFRA
better by design
"Truth is a shining goddess, always veiled, always distant, never wholly approachable, but worthy of all the devotion of which the human spirit is capable. "
Yup... agreed... The colour wasn't right. I noticed the webbing mostly looked unblancoed for a start.
Yes, they've done a whole series with the coloured footage. Although it is a bit dodgy in places, it does actually bring it to life IMO.
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
Spotted a Thompson, so that's my excuse sorted!!
lol... I know the shot you mean... unfortunately there's a No4 next to it 
Ah, so a bit of dodgy footage then....

You'd best be prepared for an "anti-farb" heart attack at Ariel then! Seeing as 90% of the Brit side DON'T have an SMLE and will be using No4's, Thompsons and Stens.
When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!
lol... more than 90%... I think it's just me who's got one!
Evo's doesn't work at the moment.
Ah, so a bit of dodgy footage then....
Yes as well as lots of No4's there's also quite a few shots with guys with nets on their tommy helmets. Yet another thing not done at Dunkirk.
I think I've supplied almost all of the Brit team for Ariel with a hessian helmet cover, so at least we shouldn't see any helmet nets.
When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!
Yes... it looks to me like there could be a lot of good impressions... just a shame about the weaponry!... ah well
first there arnt enough no4's, then when we sell a kidney to buy one , its SMLE's needed...... oh FFS! 
I might lug the Bren around this time seeing as
a) it seems to refuse to work for anybody else
b) at least I can (for a change) take the moral high ground in the accuracy stakes
c) I'm assuming you want to try out your new No.4 Scaley
guys i am happy to do the bren.......no probs,but yes i would like to fire my no4 in anger. but it would be nice to have a bren there. we can share it.
