In this episode, we walk the fields that link together an English composer, a Canadian who was one of three from the same street to be awarded the Victoria Cross, a black cat that went into battle in one of the first Tanks, and a young officer who collected books. We're back on the Somme, walking the ground between Pozières and Martinpuich where the fighting in September 1916 took place.
