   I may be way off base here but there is a British television series
called *Danger: UXB* with UXB standing for UneXploded Bomb.  It was about
a military bomb disposal squad in England during WWII that had the enviable
task of going around disabeling unexploded German bombs and was shown on
PBS several years ago. If I recall correctly (and I'm sure I'm spelling it
it wrong) it starred Anthony Aienly.
