World War I
All's quiet
The world before the war
How it began
War fever
Let battle commence
Trench troubles
As bad as it gets
Biplanes and airstrips
Bilge rats and kippers
Back in Britain
We're right behind you
The end is nigh
Meanwhile, Elsewhere
Looking back
World War II
Beware Buzz-bombs
Or - who started it?
The phoney war
We shall fight them with forks - if we have to
In a black bag
And the cupboard was bare
What Great-Grandma did in the war
Hee hee and haw haw
Life on the other side
Can you keep a secret?
Well it is a world war!
Getting ready for the off
Not a nice place to be
And worse......
Well, someone must have
What was the point of it all?
