Birmingham housewife Shirley McGlade, the illegitimate daughter of an English woman and an American GI based in Britain during the Second World War, longed to find the father she had never known.
Her crusade unwittingly started a chain reaction which led her to take on the might of the US Government - and win legal rights for the children of American servicemen all over the world, enabling them to trace their natural fathers.
Narrated by Jenni Murray.

Wodaabe - Herdsmen of the Sun
The Wodaabe - 'those who live under the taboo of purity' - consider themselves 'the most beautiful people on earth'. Their slender and graceful young men, many of them seven feet tall, adorn themselves with beads, hats and blue lipstick as part of a tribal celebration in which the young women choose the most beautiful man among them. Distinguished German film director Werner Herzog , maker of Fitzcarraldo and Aguirre, Wrath of God, travelled to the southern
Sahara to make this startling documentary, given a surreal quality by the music of Mozart, Handel and Verdi. : DOCUMENTARY: page 8 PICTURE STORY: page 54
