In this special festive edition of Battle Lines, Roland Oliphant
and Dominic Nicholls cut through the tinsel to tell a story that
actually matters.

In aid of, The Not Forgotten, a charity born out of the
carnage of the First World War, they are joined by Hari
Budha Magar, a Gurkha veteran who lost both his legs while
serving in Afghanistan. From a remote village in Nepal to the
battlefields of Afghanistan, Harry recounts the moment an IED
changed his life and how he rebuilt it again.

Join Roland, Dom and Hari for dark humour, blunt honesty and
genuine inspiration.
