Following listener outrage after we watched Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk, we're watching Leslie Norman's 1958 version, starring John Mills and Richard Attenborough. Joining us is pollster Joe Twyman, whose grandfather barely made it off the beach in 1940.

Did we prefer the sweeping epic nature of this version, or were we too distracted by John Mill's accent and age?

Next week, we're watching A Canterbury Tale, available on the BFI Player and elsewhere.
