| Summary |
Ian Hislop, editor and broadcaster is a self-confessed patriot who lives in Kent, the verdant "garden of England". His father was Scottish, his mother was English but came from Jersey. As a child, he lived in Nigeria, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Hong Kong but was then sent to prep school in England. Delving into his past, Hislop discovers that both his grandfathers fought for King and country over a wide range of wars. His father's father fought in WWI, while his grandfather on his mother's side saw service in the Boer War. But it's WWII that Hislop examines first. His mother was 11 when the Nazi occupation of Jersey began and he wants to find out more because she didn't talk about it much. (From the UK, in English) (Documentary Series) |
