| Video Discription | Between 1814-1816, the British and the Gurkhas fought a vicious bloody war - the Anglo Nepalese War. It was the only time they ever fought each other. The bravery shown by both sides built a mutual respect and a 200 year tradition of Gurkhas serving in the British Army began. It continues to this day.

I explore some of the characters who participated in the war, including General Gillespie, Colonel (later General) Ochterlony and the disapearing General Marley. We then follow the service that the Gurkas have given to Britain since the Anglo-Nepalese War. 26 Victoria Crosses have been awarded to men serving in Gurkha regiments and I tell the story of the last man to receive the VC, Lance Corporal (later Captain) Limbu in 1965 (Borneo Confrontation) Chapters: 0:00 Intro 1:05 Gurkha Victoria Cross 3:03 Heading For A Clash 5:29 Anglo-Nepalese War Starts 7:37 Battle of Kalunga (Nalapani) 12:51 Gen.

Not just because they are interesting but because, good or bad, they have shaped the world we live in today. History should not be stuffy or a long list of dates or kings & queens. So rather than lectures or Youtube animations, I tell stories that bring the past to life. My aim is to be chat as if I were having a coffee or meal with you.
