Sir Nicholas - the British Oskar Schindler ?
frog_chorus15 February 2006
Sir Nicholas Winton is still alive to this day and his story has never really got the international attention it deserves. He kept many of his stories secret until well after his 90th birthday, it is believed that he saved many Jewish children from the Nazi ovens during the holocaust. This was probably one of the most memorable editions of 'this is your life', with tear-jearking and emotional reunions with the children, who are now in their 60's , and it also believed that there are somewhat 5,000 descendants of those he saved. It was so poignant and what was even more moving was how the children saw Sir Nick as their 'Father' their families all saw him as 'their Grandad' , a truly inspirational story !
