I came across this while researching Anthony Horowitz, who wrote this wonderful show.
I managed to track it down in YouTube where you can watch it in four parts.
It was an absolute joy to watch.
Jim Broadbent gives yet another superb performance as he relates the adventures of a true English eccentric.
It often feels like you are watching "Monty Python" or "Black Adder Goes Forth".
Lieutenant Colonel Alfred Daniel Wintle MC, better known as A. D. Wintle, was a remarkable Englishman by all accounts; he was brave, and steadfast as well as being a true to himself, rebel.
His candour got him into many scrapes, but he would not let any adversity stand in his way; he always did what he felt was right.
This is gem of a show about a gem of a person.
