Three emotionally charged relationships are revealed by their correspondence from the time of the First World War.
Song of Love: Rupert Brooke and Noel Olivier. Rupert Brooke's middle-class background was an obstacle to his courting younger patrician Noel Olivier. This fired their letters with an intensity and lyricism, until Brooke's premature death on active service in 1915. With Linus Roache and Helena Bonham-Carter.
Written and compiled by Pippa Harris
Producer Peter Kavanagh
