Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

An elderly man is put on trial for war crimes. A concentration camp survivor diagnosed with a terminal illness writes down her life story, which she has spent years trying to blank out, for her grand-daughter. In a tangle of love and betrayal, around a group of people smuggling Jewish children out of Nazi occupied Paris, identities are shed and assumed. Fifty years later, descendants of those involved have to come to terms with how the past comes back to change their lives. A throught-provoking tear jerker.
