This is the extraordinary and deeply moving true story of the million British horses who served in World War One.The story begins with the mass call up of horses from every farm and country estate in the land. Brough Scott evokes the world of Downton Abbey as he tells the tale of his aristocratic grandfather Jack Seely and his beloved and now famous horse Warrior. In this Documentary told using rare archive and testimony, combined with the latest historical research shows how a deep bond developed between man and horse that helped both survive the hell of the Somme and Passchendaele. Behind the lines an army of vets worked miracles to treat injured horses and keep them going.
