I was reading an article today that announced that Sir Ben is to play the part of an admiral of the 14-18 war in a new drama called "Jutland 1916". The drama is based on Peter Hart's historical novel which charters one of the most famous battles in History, and one of the most important ones of WWI, as Germany and Great Britain fought for control of the North Sea. Even though the Germans retreated, Historians are still debating over which side actually triumphed in the battle.

The scenario will be written by Nick Willing, and the drama will be produced by SBK Pictures.

I think that may be something to look forward too. As far as I can see, there are more dramas about WWII than WWI, so it might be a welcome change.
