All The Kings Men DVD

As the Sandringham Company advanced onto the battlefield, a strange mist was seen to descend and engulf them - almost as though God was wrapping them up and taking them from the terror that awaited... It was the last that was ever seen of the Sandringham Company and the mystery of its disappearance survives to this day. An all-star cast portrays this most poignant and mysterious event of the First World War - the disappearance in action of the Sandringham Company at Gallipoli in 1915. Commanded by the Estate Manager, Captain Frank Beck (David Jason), they were just ordinary men - servants, grooms and gardeners - drawn from the staff of the King's private residence. They left an idyllic rural existence for the fatally ill-prepared campaign and their deaths brought the horrors of the First World War to the heart of the establishment - and to the Royal Family itself. After the war a Special Envoy was sent at the behest of Queen Alexandra (Maggie Smith) to discover what fate had befallen the Company. But the truth was never fully revealed.
