This review is from: Danger UXB: The Complete Series [Region 2] (DVD)

I have been chaseing this set of DVD's for many years & was luky enough to find the first two disks which covered half the series but was unable to find the other two disks, that is until I happend to stumble accros Amazon.com.....there it was the complete series of Danger UXB.....this series is well worth watching as it portrays one officers life in London during the days of the London Blitz & the amazing courage & bravery shown by them as the defused & rendered safe German bombs & mines many of which were booby trapped & had some very ingenious mechanisms to try and foil those sent to de-fuse them.The story includes the "boffins" who developed the devices that allowed the bomb disposal crews to overcome the many & dangerous devices dropped during those days....Well worth watching.....you can't help remembering the words "Lest We Forget".
