To kick off this new series we welcome Midge Gillies, author of "The Barbed Wire University", to discuss what life was like as a Prisoner-of-war. We discuss the day to day life of a POW, how they lived and entertained themselves, and debate from what it was they felt they were escaping.

For You The War Is Over is a podcast that looks at the real life stories of Prisoner-of-War escapes from the the Second World War. Hosted by Dave Robertson and Tony Hoskins, each episode looks at a new escape.
