The Archive Hour: Kindertransport

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Sixty years ago, Britain gave refuge to children from Nazi Europe, saved by the Kindertransports - trains from
Berlin, Vienna, Prague and elsewhere.
The parents were left behind - most were killed in the concentration camps. In 1939, BBC Radio recorded a programme in which newly arrived children told their story. Six decades on, historian Dr David Cesarani interviews some of the children again. Producer Hugh Levinson
