The Sahara Desert is the forbidding home for nearly 200,000 refugees forced to flee from their homeland by a long and bitter war with Morocco. In February this year an English aristocrat, Lord Winchelsea, organised a group of volunteers, including actor Bob Hoskins, to drive a convoy of rainbow-coloured Land Rovers carrying supplies from the House of Lords to the refugee camps in southern Algeria.
