August 22nd, 1914, on a road near Casteau in Belgium, one member of the 4th Irish Royal Dragoon Guards raised his rifle, steadied his breath and changed history forever. Drummer and Cavalryman, Ernest Edward Thomas had just fired Europe's first shot of the First World War.

Join us as we tell his story, explain his connection with Brighton and The Duke of York's Picturehouse, and describe that fateful shot, taken the day before the first Battle of Mons.
