Deathwatch is a 2002 British horror film that involves the survivors of a British unit, Y Company, who are separated from their regiment during the brutal trench fighting of the First World War. Attempting to return to their lines, the British soldiers discover what appears to be a bombed-out German trench, abandoned except for three German soldiers. After killing most of the Germans, and taking one prisoner, the British company fortifies to hold the trench until reinforcements can arrive. Soon, however, strange things being to happen as a sense of evil descends upon the trench and the British begin to turn on each other.

The film contains largely accurate World War I-era weaponry, but there are some major historical inaccuracies as the filmmakers used some WWII-era weapons for much of the film.

The following weapons were used in the film Deathwatch:

Rifles

Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I

The Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I is used by almost all of the British soldiers of Y company including Pte. Charlie Shakespeare (Jamie Bell), Sgt. David Tate (Hugo Speer), Pte. Jack Hawkstone (Hans Matheson), Pte. Willie McNess (Dean Lennox Kelly) and Pte. Anthony Bradford (Hugh O'Conor). Pte. Barry Starinski (Kris Marshall) has a telescopic sight fitted to his. During the opening sequence, these rifles are equipped with period-correct Pattern 1907 Bayonets.

This is a painfully inaccurate anachronism. While the rifle is a British design, the No. 4 wasn't even adopted by the British Armed Forces until 1939, closer to World War II. The film takes place in 1917, during World War I, and the cast should be using the period correct No. 1 Mk III*. But there is nary a No. 1 to be seen in this film, unusual since the No. 1s design is one of the most iconic weapons of the first world war.

 ==Karabiner 98k==
-Most of the German rifles seen in the trench are the anachronistic, WW2 model [[Karabiner 98k]]. They are used by Pte. Charlie Shakespeare ([[Jamie Bell]]) and Corporal 'Doc' Fairweather ([[Matthew Rhys]]). Shakespeare also gives one to German prisoner Friedrich ([[Torben Liebrecht]]) to defend himself.

+Like the use of No. 4s in WWI, the use of the Kar98k in WWI is painfully incorrect, considering the fact that they weren't even adopted by the Wehrmacht until 1935 (at that point the WWI-era German Empire didn't even exist anymore and Germany was now under the Nazi regime). In WWI, the Germans did use carbine variants of their Gewehr 98 long rifle, but they were called the [[Karabiner 98AZ|Karabiner 98AZ/98a]] and looked significantly different than the Kar98k.

 ==Mauser Gewehr 1898==
-The German soldier Friedrich ([[Torben Liebrecht]]) uses a [[Mauser Gewehr 1898]] to hold Pte. Charlie Shakespeare ([[Jamie Bell]]) at gunpoint at the end of the film. The historically accurate Gewehr 1898 is only used in this part and at the beginning; the rest of the Mauser rifles are the historically anachronistic [[Karabiner 98k]].

-==Bergmann MP18==
+== Bergmann MP18/I ==
-A [[Bergmann MP18]] is wielded by [[Jamie Bell]] as Pte. Charlie Shakespeare in one scene. It is a common misconception that the MP18 wasn't introduced until 1918 with the Ludendorff offensive. However, this is not the case as there are reports that it arrived on the battlefield (albeit in small numbers) as early as 1916. It would, however, have more likely used a "snail drum" magazine as opposed to the 20 round box one used in the film.
+A [[Bergmann MP18/I]] is wielded by Pte. Charlie Shakespeare ([[Jamie Bell]]) at one point in the film. This gun is a post-World War I conversion that has been retrofitted with a box magazine feed rather than a period-accurate TM 08 "snail magazine". In some shots, the gun is replaced by a [[Haenel MP28/II]], standing in for an MP18/I; the two guns are distinguishable by their rear sights.

+== Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II ==
+An anachronistic [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] stands in for the aforementioned MP18/I in some shots. To be fair, however, it's hard to tell the difference and the guns are very similar, with the MP28 simply being an upgraded version of the MP18.
