As part of their cunning plan to outflank the Turks and seize the high ground in the August Offensive, the Allies play their trump card. They stage a new landing at Suvla Bay and bring thousands of reinforcements ashore. But the terrain at Suvla is not as easy as it appears on a map, and the British are dogged by indecision and poor leadership. Will the men get ashore, and what new horrors will face them when they land?

In the seventh episode of our special series on the Gallipoli campaign, Mat is joined by historian Peter Hart to explore the landing at Suvla Bay.
