Ah, the BBC. Some groups have had a bit of run-in with them at a huge re-enactment event at Detling this weekend over their Panorama program 'Weekend Nazis'. There's undoubtedly a few of them in some of the SS groups and generally speaking we try and avoid all contact with them (although we did plan to dress up in grey striped pyjamas and follow the SS reenactors around all day just to really p*** them off).
However, we were talking with a bunch of lads who were from the midlands who portray an Austrian mountain troop unit. Two were married to women who were black, two were Jewish and all of them were quite resentful of the Nazi sympathisers in the SS groups, yet the BBC crew had tried to trap some of them into looking bad, as well as tarring every other group regardless of time period. It wasn't even news - most of this had been brought up more than five years ago.
We do late Roman, yet they were originally trying to get something out of us too. We don't talk to them because no matter what you say, they'll edit it how they want.
Twunts.
Bloody good weekend, though.
