The Wild Geese - with Tim Shipman

Date listened

Notes

Summary <p>Pop down to Africa, would you, and pull off a quick coup? This week, Rob and Duncan are joined by Tim Shipman to watch the most 1978 film ever released. Richard Burton! Richard Harris! Roger Moore! It's The Wild Geese!</p><br><p>Problematic moments, war crimes, it's got them all - or has it? Marvel as Duncan explains that the Geneva Convention might not apply. Thrill as Tim describes how, in a way, the film is sort of a documentary. Inspired by one group of mercenaries, it ended up inspiring another group of mercenaries, who themselves inspired a third group of mercenaries.</p><br><p>Next week, we're watching Ronald Reagan - yes, that Ronald Reagan - in "Prisoner of War".
