For this week's companion podcast we had the chance to speak to professor, historian, author and broadcaster Peter Caddick-Adams, a man with a wealth of knowledge and fantastic insights into military history.
Peter told us about the events that led to the evacuation of Dunkirk, which bits of Christopher Nolan's film were based on reality and which were artistic license, and how significant Britain's evacuation effort was in the course of the rest of the war.
It was an absolutely fascinating conversation and adds a lot of really important context to the 2017 movie.
