To be fair, it is not "shown" in the books either as that whole battle of the Whispering woods when jaime is captured is not ever seen from a Point of View character that is there to describe it as it happened. It is just talked about by or around other Point of View characters, just like the show.
In case you have not read the books, you should understand that every chapter in the books is told from the point of view of a specific character (not first person, but you get to hear their thoughts and reactions, and you only get to see what they see). Since no POV character was at that battle, we are only told about it second hand. The show was pretty faithful to the books on that one.
