Avis à la une
I only saw the first episode of this series and I loved it. It had enough teasers in to get me hooked on the promise of entertaining future episodes.
Being exposed to the military myself (Not the British Army) I have seen a post in a hostile environment, where the military families (living on base, sometimes with vast different backgrounds) are flung together for periods of time - Those families do not have the luxury of failing to make it work.
This makes for interesting living arrangements and dynamics. Women don't always have it easy, despite who you are and where you come from, you are pegged to your husband's status and position. A bit tricky to navigate when you are living in each other's pockets.
Be aware that there might be small details that are not 100 % correct regarding the setting. However, looking past that, I am crossing my fingers that this series has potential.

Rarely have I seen such a good series. Brilliantly acted, wonderful and fulfilling story, excellent scrip, outstanding cinematography. This was both gripping and moving from start to finish with such an original story. No doubt some will criticise the historical accuracy but I have to say you get a real sense of what it may have been like to live army life at the very end of the British Empire. Will definitely watch it all over again.
I'm really surprised by the number of negative reviews on here. The Last Post was a fabulous drama. I can't speak for the historically accuracy of the details but the cinematography, the scenery and the overall picture painted were beautiful and rang true to me.
The story unfolded very effectively over the six episodes giving a mix of the overall political backdrop with a number of more personal dramas each of which was engaging and interesting.
The acting was a delight. Just about every performance was perfect.

Unlike several other reviewers, i didn't serve in Aden, and don't know what types of weapon the RMP used or what sorts of planes people few in on.
However, i didn't watch this series in order to discover such details, and if you do, I fear that as well as being disappointed you may be missing the point. This is an entertainment, but also an allegory -- on the one hand a tale of decline and fall, on the other a tale of compromised decency. Evelyn Waugh meets the evil in war, as it were.
If military verisimilitude is your thing, this may not work for you; but if you liked Parade's End, the Tudors, and Brideshead Revisited (as I did), I think it will.

I am a female civilian war reporter from the Vietnam War, and I was entrenched with the American troops. I find this series SPOT ON. I was struck by the truth of the men going off to fight and coming home to a dinner cooked by their wives, not being able to say where they had been or what they had done or seen. And the separate lives of the wives, the alcohol abuse, the risk of death from childbirth no less real than what the men faced every day or so. I found the battle scenes to be absolutely realistic. The odd, angry shot. Geurilla warfare.

- AnecdotesThe BBC production crew was unable to obtain permission for the British Ministry of Defense to use the proper RMP crest for the production. They had to design a new crest that was at least 35% different from the real one.
