Are back at the British Library in london. We have got another five witnesses who have shared their personal memories of history. This month on the programme, the israeli lawyer who prosecuted the architect of the holocaust. A chinese archaeologist who worked on the statues of the terracotta army. And the son of Charlie Chaplin invites us into his home. But first, we are going back to the 1980s. The beginning of the hiv aids outbreak. At that time, stigma about the condition was rife. But in 1987, Princess Diana agreed to make a highly symbolic visit to the first hiv aids unit in britain. Our first witness, the first hiv aids unit in britain. Ourfirst witness, John The First hiv aids unit in britain. Our first witness, john oreilly, was a nurse at the unit who welcomed one of the most famous women in the world. For every person affected by hiv aids around the world, it was a major moment. It was amazing. Officially, the princess was simply opening the first hiv aids ward in britain. But more significantly, she demonstrated her confidence that aids cannot be taken in by casual contact. People were frightened. Really frightened. We didnt know what it was to begin with. There was a lot of aids homophobia. The media we re a lot of aids homophobia. The media were unkind, particularly the tabloid press. I hated all of that kind of misinformation. The headlines were scaremongering, ignorant, misleading the general public. As far as i am concerned, the gay plague was homophobia, not the gay plague was homophobia, not the virus. I did not tell anybody what i did. I could not even tell fellow nurses and doctors what i did. Ijust said i did not feel safe at the little sex hospital. None of us at the little sex hospital. None of us did. Middlesex. We couldnt attract staff because people were frightened. The unit has created other pressures in the hospital. Staff treating People With Aids are at subject to extra strain. We have to be careful with blood and body fluids, obviously, because that is the way it is transmitted to be obviously, if we are dealing with those things, we will use gloves if necessary. But were not going out of our way use spacesuits and the rest because it is totally unnecessary. My opinion of her was she was warm, sophisticated, elegant, and smart. I warmed to her instantly to be see took our consultants down a peg or two, Who Condescendingly said, do you know what this is . He was holding up an x ray of a chest. She just very politely said, i am patron of the british heart and lung foundation, of course i know what an extra is. I thought good on her, i like that. An x ray. Thought good on her, i like that. An xray. Just one question dominated the whole day. Would see 01 dominated the whole day. Would see or wood and see where gloves . Would she or wouldnt she . See showed she cared because she took everyones hand. Chicane in without gloves and shook our patience hands, as well as ours. It was moving. The board can take 12 patients. They were hiding from the media unhappy with how they were portrayed in the media. One agree to a picture of the princess shaking his hands to prove you cannot catch aids through casual contact. His hands to prove you cannot catch aids through casual contactm his hands to prove you cannot catch aids through casual contact. It did not take much convincing for him. He was dying. He thought, well, so what . I will do it. And the night it aired, igot what . I will do it. And the night it aired, i got lots of notes pushed my door. It was very, very moving. And i never got any negative reaction. For a royal to shake a patients hands, anyone on the street could do the same. It educated people. I think Princess Dianas departure has done the worldly lot of harm, i think. He now works as a psychotherapist in london. Next to a story from world war two. This is not about battles, it is about the many women who met and married foreign servicemen when they were serving in europe. In 1916, thousands of war brides sailed from Britain To Canada to be reunited with their husbands and begin there new lives. Betty hawkins was one of them. Since 1939, 34,000 british girls have made canadians. Many of them have already been sent to canada by the department of immigration. We left our families and our relatives, our friends, for one man that we were in love with. It was a marvellous thing the canadian government did. And, i mean, they moved 47,000 women, and over 22,000 children as well. When the war started, we thought london was going to be subject to mitch creek. If you dont know what that is, it is having hundreds of bombers coming overand is, it is having hundreds of bombers coming over and dropping bombs. Blitzkrieg. The bombs were terrifying because you could hear them coming. And this one came down with the engine isjust roaring. And it hits the houses at the back of us. it hits the houses at the back of us. Hit. The canadians, of course, us. Hit. The canadians, of course , are us. Hit. The canadians, of course, are part of the commonwealth. Another ship tying itself up at the british board. See the canadian troops started coming over. the canadian troops started coming over. so. The canadian troops started coming over. So. They talk to everybody. That is the canadian way. This canadian soldier they became my husband was a very nice looking guy. That. Husband was a very nice looking guy. That. I husband was a very nice looking guy. That. I was 18 or 19 years old when i met him. It was a case of in young, being in love. He asked me to marry him. I asked my mother. She seemed to think it was a good idea. More wives are off to their land of opportunity across the sea. More wives are off to their land of opportunity across the seam more wives are off to their land of opportunity across the sea. It was a one way trip we didnt know these men very well when we agreed to marry them. Everyone is safely stored above the ship. It took ten days to sail over. We wondered what it was going to be like, of course. 18,000 adopted daughters willing to learn about canadian life. We did not no way thing except that canada was vast. All we could see was snow. When i first came to this house, there was no running water, there was no electricity, there was no bathroom. We didnt have a lot of money. Ken had to work away quite a lot. I will admit, money. Ken had to work away quite a lot. Iwilladmit, that money. Ken had to work away quite a lot. I will admit, that is probably why i had eight children. When husbands work away, youre glad to see them when they come back. There was a lot of us who were very brave. It was, well, i would say an adventure. Betty hawkins talking to witness in canada. Now to one of the greatest archaeological finds of the 20th century. In the spring of 1974, a group of people in china accidentally uncovered the site of the vast terracotta army. 0ur accidentally uncovered the site of the vast terracotta army. Our next witness is an archaeologist who has devoted her career to these life size warriors. Devoted her career to these lifesize warriors.

We found out later that was the gas chambers. And they had a little daughter, to a half years old, and of course, they also said to the left. And then they asked about his profession. Many said he was an engineer in the army. They sent into the right to some work. And he had a boy. Halep was the . 13. The commander said he had to speak to the commander in chief. It took a few minutes, and many said the boy, one after your mother. I saw the witness, back there, with with tears in his eyes. And he said he could not see his wife any more.

At that time, my daughter was exactly 2 and a half old. I had bought hera red coat too weeks before that. And when the witness said that about the red coat, it suddenly cut off my voice completely.
