The bloodshed and heartache of the Spanish Civil War has often been glossed over, with many people thinking it was a war for artists and poets. This programme speaks with two people who witnessed the agony - one a nurse from east London and the other a soldier who fought for
Franco. Their stories are told by actor Alfred Molina , whose father was a refugee from the Spanish Civil War, and complemented and contrasted by poems, readings, music and news reports from the era. Producer Mark Palmer
