I first misread this as "Sarah Palin and Tall".

Danger UXB. I don't know if it was considered a mini-series in the UK, but in the US, where it was shown on PBS Masterpiece Theater, I think it qualifies. A fact-based story that follows an Army squad of colorful characters as they defuse unexploded Luftwaffe bombs around England in WW2. They basically have to make up the job as they go along, hoping not to be blown up as they try new tricks, while the Germans invent ever-more dangerous and booby-trapped fuzes. Great characters, great suspense, great sense of time and place and even a nice romance. Not every character is likable, and no character is safe. I saw some episodes when I was about 11 and it left quite an impression on my mind till I was able to see it again about 25 years later. Another one I watch regularly.

I remember that one. Fantastic show.
