Tomorrow's show at the London Palladium is the last of this year's touring. Can't think of a better way to round off what has been a fabulous year of delightful audiences laughing in the right places. Thanks to everyone who has come. And here's Eastbourne:

Have you heard any of the Kokoda eps yet? If not, here is an extract of the kinds of stories you can expect from the series, with GH's resident Aussie, Sam, kindly lending his voice for this first-hand account of the fighting.

Popped into Vertex to have a look at their cool watches. This is the WWII model that 007 wears in my new Bond novel, King Zero.

TODAY'S SHOW: Join James Holland & Al Murray as they look at the epic fight for the Kokoda Trail - including why before the campaign, soldiers in the AIF might call men of the Militia 'Choccos'...

For our Australian friends, we also talked about Bruce (of course heโ€™s called Bruce) Kingsbury VCโ€ฆ. The epitome of charging the enemy foreign the Bren from the hip at Isurava, PNG.

Repost: The Papuan Infantry Battalion fought throughout the entire war in Papua New Guinea 1942-45; longer than any other Allied unit, filling an important role way out of proportion to their size. A brief description of their first action in the 1942 Papuan Campaign: @almurray
OTD 1942: Today an historic day for Papua New Guinea. ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฌ Near Awala, between Buna and Kokoda (Papua), 35 PNG and 3 Australian soldiers of the Papuan Infantry Battalion armed only with .303 rifles took up an ambush position and were given the order "You will engage the enemy." /2

Tell the lads Osmar White wrote an excellent account of the campaign; also had a side career in later life as a local children's book author. I highly recommend it and, 'The Super-Roo of Mungalongaloo'.

Just finished the new @WeHaveWaysPod 4 episode series on the Kokoda campaign of 1942. A very solid foundation provided by @almurray & @James1940 for a very complex slice of history. Wasn't expecting the degree of detail & analysis provided. If you're new to this topic start here
