    Aden, 1965. The men of the British Royal Military Police are battling a fierce insurgency. Tensions are heightened in the heat of the desert; any lapse in luck or judgement means death. But life and love must continue. The '60s are starting to swing: sexual liberation, seductive new music and outrageous fashions have hit the sun loungers of the glamorous BP Club.

    Newlywed, and newly appointed to his first post, Captain Joe Martin dutifully settles into the role of model husband and officer, repressing a restless need for something more. His wife Honor is desperate to please her new partner. But how well does she know the man she's married? Feisty Alison couldn't be more different to innocent young Honor, and revels in leading her new friend gloriously astray. Her husband, Lieutenant Ed Laithwaite, is a progressive thinker who separates himself from the rest of the troops, at odds with the arrogance of empire.

    Mary Markham puts loyalty, service and discretion above all else. She's married to Major Harry Markham, a principled leader whose greatest pride is never having lost a soldier serving under him. But here, isolated in this unknown country, nothing is certain, and relationships are tested as pressure and passions intensify. This bitter war brings danger and betrayal, and will question the code these dedicated soldiers live by.
Last October, BBC One debuted the 6-episode series The Last Post, starring Ben Miles (The Crown) and Jessica Raine (Call The Midwife, Wolf Hall). Now BBC Home Entertainment and distributor Warner Home Video are releasing this show on DVD in North America on June 26th. The 2-disc set will be priced at $24.98 SRP, and below we've got package art and an Amazon pre-order button link. Check it out:

Amazon Prime Original Series "The Last Post" NOW AVAILABLE Exclusively for Prime Members in the US


                     

Amazon Prime Original Series, The Last Post, is now available for Prime members in the US to stream or download via the Amazon Video app for TVs, connected devices and mobile devices or online here. Check out the trailer here for a quick glimpse and episodic art can be downloaded here. Additionally, The Last Post soundtrack is now available with music by Solomon Grey, the hotly tipped UK band and composer duo Tom Kingston and Joe Wilson.

From the highly acclaimed BAFTA award winner Peter Moffat (The Night Of), and starring Jessica Raine (Call The Midwife), Jessie Buckley (War and Peace), Jeremy Neumark Jones (Denial), Amanda Drew (Broadchurch), Ben Miles (Coupling, RSC’s Wolf Hall), and Stephen Campbell Moore (History Boys, The Go-Between), The Last Post is set during the social and political unrest of the mid-sixties, in the simmering heat of Aden, Yemen, and centers on the lives of a unit of Royal Military Police officers and their families.

In The Last Post, the men in the police unit don’t have easy jobs: half soldiers, half policemen and full time husbands and fathers who face constant insurgency and threat. Danger is everywhere. Based on Peter Moffat's childhood memories, his father's life as an officer in the Royal Military Police and his mother's struggle between being what the army required her to be and what she felt like being, The Last Post is an in depth look at the sacrifices made by our soldiers and their families.
