À propos de cet audio
Douglas Bader was a man who lost both his legs but became a World War 2 flying ace, a disability campaigner who could be insufferably rude, a prisoner in Colditz who was nearly killed by his American liberators. We're joined by Peter Apps, who was paralysed in an accident while working as a Reuters war correspondent but has since rejoined the Army, to talk about the amazing film of Bader's life. Did Kenneth More make him seem to nice? Why were the film's makers so personally invested in the portrayal of Bader's rehabilitation? Why did Bader refuse to go and see it?
Peter's new book is "The Next World War: the New Age of Global Conflict and the Fight to Stop It".
Next week: We kick off Fighting Irish Month with The Siege of Jadotville.
