Saturday 20th December 2014 The New Military Wives

The Military Wives are back!

It is three years since Gareth formed the first Military Wives choir, and since then the Military Wives Choirs organisation has mushroomed with over 80 choirs and 2,000 members around the globe.

This BBC documentary follows choirmaster Gareth Malone as he forms a 100-strong Military Wives super-choir to perform at a special BBC Proms Concert to commemorate the Centenary of the First World War. The women are to sing with the National Theatre's War Horse team in an emotionally engaged performance at the BBC Proms.
