Wales

Jules Hudson reaches Wales where he discovers how 70 prisoners of war made a daring escape from a prison near Bridgend. In Cardiff he hears how women operated barrage balloons the size of two London buses to keep German bombers at bay, and there is an emotional reunion as a London born evacuee is taken back to the Welsh village that became his home throughout the war.
