A tie-in book, Not Forgotten, written by Neil Oliver, was published by Hodder & Stoughton.
Three additional episodes were subsequently produced:
⁕Shot at Dawn, examining the stories of men shot for desertion and cowardice.
⁕The Men Who Wouldn't Fight, challenging the stigma attached to conscientious objectors. This episode featured, amongst others, the story of Ronald Skirth, who became a conscientious objector while serving in the Royal Artillery.
