Gallipoli - The Helles Landing
Listen now
Description
While the Australians and New Zealanders are struggling to come ashore at Anzac Cove, the British are landing at Cape Helles, on the southern toe of the Gallipoli peninsula. But once again, the Turkish defenders put up a stiff resistance that far exceeds their small numbers. Can the British get ashore in the face of this withering fire? In the third episode of our special series on the Gallipoli campaign, Pete is joined by historian Mat McLachlan to tell the story of the landings at Cape Helles.
