Shot down on route to the target, or still waiting to be called when the war ended, there were a handful of kamikazes who survived.

One of the most important revolutions of the 20th century has taken place not on the battlefield but in the home. In 1900, one in three working women in Britain was a domestic servant. Fifty years later, that entire way of life had disappeared, with wide-ranging implications for all women. With the help of archive film of domestic life through the century, and interviews with former domestic servants, employers, and experts, Timewatch looks at how the way we live, the design of our houses, and the role of women have all been caught up in this quiet revolution. It also asks whether the need for domestic help is now back on the agenda. Air Date : 29th-Oct-1995 Read More

First-hand accounts from Tank Corps veterans and rarely seen archive film trace the highs and lows of this technological novelty, piecing together the true story of the tank in the First World War.
