The solider also appears in a very old National Geographic documentary (made before the days when cable television was big, so it was for American public television instead), which deals with excavation of Herculaneum and the analysis process by that woman scientist and her inferences about the bones. I recall that it was very good and interesting... it must have come out when I was around 8-10 years old, so it's been awhile (at least by my limited reckoning)! You could probably order it somewhere.
