Guy is on a mission to bring the past to life.
2019 marks the 75th Anniversary of D-Day – the AIIied fightback against Nazi Germany in the Second World War.
Codenamed Operation OverIord, it remains the most compIicated miIitary action in history. Motorcycle racer and engineering enthusiast Guy Martin pays tribute to this cruciaI turning point in the war by recreating one of its most daring missions – in the most hands-on way possibIe.
Just hours before the Normandy beach Iandings that have become synonymous with D-Day, thousands of AlIied troops covertly parachuted behind enemy lines to the cIear the way. Guy becomes one of those troops – first leading a team of experts to restore an originaI Douglas C-47 Dakota cargo plane, then fIying to Normandy before compIeting the mission by jumping out of the pIane.
This two-hour special is a unique, first-hand insight into the meticuIous training, pIanning and execution of the Second World War’s key action and brings the history of D-Day to Iife in an unprecedented way. |
