This is a two part documentary from the BBC which has been posted on Youtube in HD. It was mentioned before on this forum, but not sure I saw it mentioned as a link.

It is a nice look at British armored warfare during WW2 from the tanker's perspective. It is quite good, and a fairly honest documentary.

It is quite well done, and especially keen look at the actions at Villers Bocage and a great look at the African campaign. Saw a bit of footage I had never seen before too, which is always great.

Worth the watch if you have not yet seen it.

Well worth watching, the brave young men. What would we be without their sacrifice ?

I really like Mark Urban's work, he's one of the few level headed and analytical military correspondents working at the BBC.
