Default Looking for Old War Film

I remember seeing a film on television some time back about a group of commandos attacking a Japanese base and the consequent chase and attempt at escape. It culminated in a court case and an horrific conclusion. It was a true story about an incident at the very end of the war.

I am sorry I have no information on cast or title, (or even that it's actually British but it certainly isn't American).

Anyone got any ideas or even a copy available?

Thanks in advance.

What was the horrific conclusion? It might help.

I didn't want to put a spoiler up D. Let's just say they were found guilty of sabotage and sentanced in a way only the Imperial Army would have found honourable.

Have found title, it's called Heroes 2 The Return.

Heroes II: The Return (1992) (TV)


Now just need to find someone who has it LOL.

Ah yes, the first version The Heroes (1988) (TV) starred Jason Donovan

The second one is more about the aftermath
