The British and French have secured the barest of toeholds at Cape Helles, and the Anzacs are hanging on by their fingernails at Anzac Cove. Now their commanders must decide what to do next. Turning away from Anzac for the time being, they decide to throw their scarce resources into the main battlefield of Helles, and finally secure the objectives of Krithia village and Achi Baba hill. Can they succeed against a reinforced and confident Turkish garrison?

In the fourth episode of our special series on the Gallipoli campaign, Mat is joined by historian Peter Hart to tell the story of the hellish fighting at Helles between April and July 1915.

Hosts: Mat McLachlan and Peter Hart
