In this episode, we look at the lives of two soldiers from New Zealand, whose exceptional acts of bravery on the Somme saw them awarded the Victoria Cross. The exploits of one of these men, Dick Travis, in No Mans Land made him a legend amongst the officers and men of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force, and earned him the sobriquet "The King of No Mans Land".
