Listen "WoW uncovers the remarkable life of Lord Alf Dubs"
Episode Synopsis
This week we take a pause from the usual hurly burly of Commons politics to meet a remarkable man.
Born in Prague, Lord Dubs was one of 669 Czech, mainly Jewish children saved by English stockbroker Nicholas Winton from the Nazis on the Kindertransport. He only discovered that he was one of the “Winton children” a few years ago after a relative saw his name on a television programme by Ester Rantzen.
Brian Shallcross heads to the Upper House to meet Lord Alf Dubs, and talk of those distant, but agonizing memories.
