No. 25 — ' Welsh Lidice '. Written by P. H. Burton. Produced by T. Rowland Hughes. Broadcast simultaneously in the Home Service and to the United States, in collaboration with the Columbia Broadcasting System of America '
At the beginning of this year, the film The Silent Village was made, which showed the tragedy of Lidice as if it had happened in a village in Wale... In this film, the people of a Welsh village became, to all intents and purposes, the martyred people of Lidice. This village was Cwmgiedd, and today the villagers come to the microphone to tell listeners not only about their valley and their village, but how they made the film and how it brought home to them, as nothing else could, the tragedy of the Czechoslovakian miners whose lives were taken, whose homes were destroyed, and whose wives and children were scattered over the Continent.
