Children of Courage

on BBC One London

Esther Rantzen and Gavin Campbell introduce some remarkable stories of young people who have shown extraordinary courage and determination.
The brave Lancashire boy who lost both legs when he was 3. Now, aged 5, he has been through six pairs of artificial limbs and has an amazing turn of speed round the school gym.
The Surrey blind girl who rides bikes and horses and refuses to be anything but normal.
The Essex boy who rescued his family just before their car blew up.
The Leeds girl who threw her baby brothers from the first floor window of a blazing flat. And the gentle hero who saved his friend after three days and two nights on an isolated North Yorkshire cliff. Producer ESTHER RANTZEN
Director PIETER MORPURGO (R)
