In March 1939 a group of 23 children and their two adult guardians stepped off a coach in Waddesdon village, Buckinghamshire. The arrivals were Jewish refugees who had escaped Nazi Germany, where they'd been forced to leave behind their homes and loved ones. With support from their sponsors James and Dorothy de Rothschild and the local community, the children began a new life in England. Presenter Diane Kenwood uncovers an extraordinary story of survival and hope in one of history's darkest periods, and with the help of their families retraces the steps of the Cedar Children.

Welcome to a very wonderful interview with my therapist Jay Dudley. This woman gave me a pathway to changing my life and I’ll be forever grateful. Jay is based in Aylesbury and Waddesdon, providing a range of therapies (yes - there are many therapies available), confidence coaching and NLP. Jay also provides a free 30 minute consultation to assess your needs first before any sessions take place. Jay treated me for emotional trauma/PTSD in childhood and adulthood. She also helped me to forgive my Dad for being absent in my life which has been a huge barrier for me. Since having therapy I’ve been able to process my emotions in a healthier way, forgive myself/others and let go. Most importantly I’ve been able to move forward with my life. I had one of the longest lists of traumas that Jay has ever seen - we had a giggle about this. So if you think that you have too many problems to be solved, think again and get in touch with Jay!

Bettany visits Waddesdon Manor in Buckinghamshire, an extraordinary French chateau built as a fairy-tale castle by Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild in the heart of the English countryside. Here Bettany meets Pippa Shirley, Head of Collections and Gardens, to discuss the contradictions at the heart of the house, which showcases the best of 18th century French decorative art. Ferdinand devised the house in part as a stage set to court power and for a ‘wow’ factor, and this very much paid off when Queen Victoria asked to visit. The Queen became obsessed with the new electric light switches, which she kept turning on and off. Later, Margaret Thatcher chose to host President Mitterand here during the 1990 summit: an event about which Lord Rothschild spills the beans in an illuminating chat with Bettany.
