Lieutenant John Chard: What's our strength? Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead: Seven officers including surgeon, commissaries and so on; Adendorff now I suppose; wounded and sick 36, fit for duty 97 and about 40 native levies. Not much of an army for you.

I have been told there, was a movie about Cetewayo, where he had a poor chap who annoyed him coated in clay a bamboo tube was inserted in each end and then roasted over a open fire.Not sure if I believe it.
However does anyone know if there was a movie about Cetewayo.

I have searched IMDB for Cetewayo and the only reference is "Zulu"- i think it is probably Shaka .

I’m not even sure Shaka would have done this.

"It is from a film entitled 'The Naked Prey' directed & starring Cornel Wilde. Gert van den Bergh - Adendorff in 'Zulu' - mets a nasty fate too!"
