Description:
How do you live when your job can kill you - as well as everyone else around you?
The year is 1940, and the blitzkrieg is in full force. A furious battle is waging over British skies. On the ground, bombs explode by the thousands. The land is far from safe, as many more bombs lie amidst the rubble, waiting to detonate. Lieutenant Brian Ash and the brave men of the 97th Tunneling Company must accomplish their ongoing mission: to defuse all unexploded bombs (UXBs). These are the stories of their lives-unsung heroes and their wives, and families, all facing the pressures of the war's deadliest jobs.
Brought to you by the award-winning producer of Upstairs, Downstairs, Danger UXB features Anthony Andrews (Brideshead Revisited) and a stellar supporting cast. Based on actual war memoirs, all 13 compelling and intelligently written episodes of this series are now available on DVD for the first time.
