I'm very fond of this episode. It's nicely done and the actors are convincing.

Really dug this one too. I suppose if I had to comment on something it's that I'm not sure whether the lack of actually seeing the Indians and the battle etc was down to budget, or were they trying to make it appear a bit more ambiguous; like it's merely a coincidence that these men got lost and names matching theirs appeared on the memorial. I'm inclined to think it's budgetary, there was too much evidence to suggest that they were in some sort of time overlap than just that they got lost.
