The True Story of the Bridge on the River Kwai

The true story behind the real bridge and the man who had to supply the men to build it, Lt. Col. Toosey. Toosey left behind nearly 50 hours of audio-tapes detailing his experiences in captivity. The programme draws on these tapes, interviews with British and Japanese war veterans, and previously unseen post-war correspondence with Toosey's former captor, Sergeant Major Saito.
