Prisoners of the War

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by PETER TERSON
A boy grows up on industrial Tyneside during the Second World War: he watches its effects on the community he knew, the hopes and fears, successes and failures, of those who went to fight and those who stayed at home.
Producer TONY CLIFF †
