34. Film Club: Zulu Dawn

Most listeners will remember the Michael Caine and Stanley Baker epic, Zulu, but in order to provide the historical context, I’ve selected Zulu Dawn which was it’s prequel, and so despite being released 15 years later, it’s chronologically 24hours earlier. This is the British film made in 1979 starring Peter O’Toole, Burt Lancaster and Bob Hoskins. Joining is Roger Moorhouse and in Tim Hewitt’s place, Alec Marsh, author, Telegraph columnist and a lovely chap, so I hope you enjoy.
