Does anyone remember the name of a BBC mini-series set during the Boer War? It was made about 12 years ago I think.

I do remember a BBC made mini-series about Cecil Rhodes, starring Martin Shaw. Bombed spectacularly, iirc.

I've been googling and the only Boer War related series are Rhodes and something from the 70s called The Regiment
