The Somme, produced by New Era, was screened from 1927. It continued the

Cable (Ernest Ewart), both of whom were at the Somme. When Barkas fell
ill, M A Wetherall took over the direction. The film follows the model
of other battle films, incorporation some original footage and
reconstructing episodes featuring heroic actions by Victoria Cross
