The Paper Clip Spirit

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

When Norway was invaded by Nazi Germany in 1940 there was a brief period of understandable confusion among the population: but this was soon replaced by active resistance by many and passive resistance, at least, by most.
Murdoch McPherson presents this story of Norwegian Resistance that was typified, early on, when thousands of people wore paper clips in their lapels as a symbol of their hatred and rejection of this oppressive occupation. Producer
