Yup, I have a morbid obsession with all persons extremist.
Its on now. Its all a bit odd to look at, you do wonder 'why?!'
Getting married in wehrmacht uniform?!
The journalist has yet to make his case for anything more sinister, though.
E2A- David Irvine is in attendance and there are stalls selling Bergen-Belsen paraphenalia!

My brother belongs to a few re-enactment groups and he goes along to the place featured on this programme. He dresses up as a British soldier for the Normandy section. They all have a really good time.
Actually there is a small Spanish Republican re-enactment group, they won't fire guns though, i think they are all pacifists. more seriously, when i spoke to them about the SS R/G's (which tbh are worryingly fascinating to watch) they told me that the Second Battle Group is well known as a focus for neo-nazis, etc, and that there have been on occasions, fights and scuffles in the recreation tent. However, i think they like to keep all this in house, so that the lollipop brigade dont start picketing!
btw, Citygirl, Sharpe on tv today on UK History was set in Keighely and was about the luddites and the machine wreckers in the early 1800's and the dastardly local yeomanry who were used to put them down, often with bloody
results.

history of all hitherto existing society is BLANK?
I went to a wargames show , Salute, this year, and these guys (SBG) had a huge display there. The number of complaints the organisers received was huge, and they had to make a public apology on their website.
I had no problem with some guys in German uniforms with cool machineguns, but seeing a group of Hitler Youth walking about Excel in the docklands was just too weird. They were selling all the memorabilia there too, those mugs that they showed on th TV program.
I was trying to imagine what would happen if I brought a SS mug to work...

Apart from the real Nazis they all say that I work with black people and they're lovely blokes but...
It's very sad. I'm sure that it's the companionship and kindred spirit thing for most of them but the nasty fuckers will lead them. Not a lot of women there and lots of hugging and touching.

I couldn't help but think of my old boss when I was watching this programme.
I don't think he actually went as far as getting dressed up, but I bet he'd probably been along to few of these re-enactments in his time. Him and his mates were obsessed with WW2 airplanes, building scale models, and going on weekend trips to various WW2 sites on the continent, etc. (-Yeah, I know how dodgy that bit probably sounds...). I'd bump into him and his mates in the pub, and, without fail, they'd always be discussing the specific technical details of Spitfires vs. Messerschmitts, etc...
We used to constantly tease him about being some kind of secret Nazi-lover, but in truth, he was as much into Allied stuff as he was Axis, and he realised just how ridiculous and vaguely sad his obsessions must seem to us. He had a fantastic sense of humour too, really twisted and deadpan. If his wife would've let him, he'd probably have got married in full regalia like in tonight's programme; but not because he was a Nazi sympathiser, but just because he's got a completely daft sense of humour. Huge Monty Python fan, of course...
On the day he left our office, a colleague even presented him with a painting of him mocked up as a German officer, complete with comedy monocle and facial scar, with a Messerschmitt going down in flames in the distance. He knew it was a complete pisstake of him, and he loved it.
I realise he must sound a bit dubious (-like that episode of Peep Show...), but he really was no Nazi sympathiser; he was just obsessed with all things WW2. The best boss I've ever had, tbh.

Pirate re-enactments are the in thing at the moment anyway.
My brother looks like an older version of Johnny Depp when he's dressed in his gear. I am convinced it's all a cover for some sort of wife-sawpping malarkey though.
