Did the Christmas Truce - which saw a number of unofficial ceasefires between the combatants of the First World War, during the Christmas of 1914 - really occur, or has it all a myth? What is the real story behind this legendary event? And, did German and British soldiers really play football across no-man's land?


Join Dominic and Tom as they delve into the history behind one of the most famous and moving events of the First World War.
