Dr GB Staight

Autumn 1914. Farmer Tom Bomford leaves his life in rural England for the sands of Eqypt. He is a member of the Worcestershire Yeomanry and he is at the start of a long and extraordinary adventure that will stretch across the whole of the First World War. Based on a true story, Testament is a remarkable portrait of violence and friendship, of war and the people affected by it. Of the soldiers struggling against an unforgiving enemy and extreme heat, and of the families back home facing the bottomless fears and uncertainties of having their sons fighting on the other side of the world in one of the bloodiest conflicts in human history.
