It's been a collection of 5 documentaries, taking place all week specifically for Armistice Day. Heartbreaking and yet life affirming. If you haven't yet caught it, I would recommend listening back online.

I have been in tears every day, such a sad subject but really sensitively handled. I sometimes find Jeremy Vine a bit boorish but he was great with the Mums, very respectful, and when he said today that it was the most important piece he'd worked on in 25 years of journalism it touched me very much.

Me too TTTR. I have cried and cried this week :( I was also very touched by how he closed the show. I am so glad these women were given a voice when so much has been taken out of their control.
