The Great Escape - Stanisław Król

The Great Escape - Stanisław Król

Alina Nowobilska, a historian of Poland during the Second World War and host of the 'Moments in Time' podcast, joined us to tell us about the life and escape of Stanisław Król, who escaped with Sydney Dowse. Together they were among the last to be captured, although sadly Król was to have an all too true premonition of his fate after capture.

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.
