The final programme looks at the legacy of the war through the eyes of the bards who were writing in the years after it had ended. It was thought that the war would be 'the war to end all wars', but that wasn't the case, and that realisation led many poets such as Murdo MacFarlane to question the effectiveness of war in general. However, at the same time, it is realised that the sacrifice of those who went into battle should never be forgotten.
