Episode description

Stephen Dando-Collins. 'Crack hardy' was a saying used in the First World War trenches. It meant 'grin and bear it, put on a brave face'. The Searle boys had to crack hardy as they fought in one gruelling campaign after another. One brother was killed at Gallipoli, another on the Western Front and one came home a decorated hero. Join award winning author Stephen Dando-Collins, the great nephew of the Searle brothers, as he shares his family's story.
