Tonight Richard Baker visits the Barnardo Children's Village at Barkingside, Essex.
At the turn of the century over 1,200 orphaned and abandoned girls lived in the self contained village. Today less than 200 people live around the village green. These residents are joined tonight in the children's church by people from local churches to sing hymns chosen by, among others, 91-year-old Albert Fallatze, inspired by Thomas Barnardo as a 13-year-old boy and still an active preacher, and Dora Kite, an old-age pensioner who has lived in the village for over 60 years.
