A 90 minute documentary on the LRDG - Lost in Libya- will screening on TV One, Saturday April 25 at 1 pm. Author Brendan O'Carroll, who is an expert on the LRDG went over to Libya last year to visit an intact battle site where the LRDG first encountered the Italian equivalent. The documentary goes into the battle and O'Carroll's visit to the site.
There have been few docos on the LRDG and this should be well worth viewing. |

I'm pretty sure it's available on DVD, and there's a book out as well.
Probably the best book on the LRDG is Kiwi Scorpions, also by Brendan. |

Hey Kev, I've got a copy on DVD and can do a copy for you. Sorry for the delay I thought I had it but couldn't find it untill this evening,It was sitting in a pile of unlabelled discs. send me a PM with your address and I'll forward a copy next week assuming my laptop doesn't spit the dummy.
