We've been told this programme is extraordinary and moving if anyone's interested. It's the story of 70 English schoolchildren who were captured and ended up in a Japanese concentration camp with Scottish athlete and missionary Eric Liddell. On iPlayer until tomorrow, 28th March.

Happy Easter

Jennie

I've managed to listen now, yes, very touching, glad you liked it. Nice that Eric Liddell asked the band to play Finlandia, as tune to that hymn with the lovely words.
