(We love, ‘If you could bottle the elation at the end of Eugenius! you’d make a fortune!’ amongst a ton of other terrific tweets.) Well, anyway, we’ve listened to the clamour (‘Eugenius! has this infectious joy about it which completely sweeps you up’, there’s another), and we’ve been busy tweaking, tickling and tightening the show even more.

Soldier On is inspired by the stories writer/director Jonathan Lewis (writer of multi award-winning Our Boys) workshopped with British servicemen and women and their families over a five year period.
