Finding your next obsession
Finding your next obsession

A family experiences what it was like to celebrate the first three Christmases of the 1940s, and the challenges and deprivations families faced during these times. The Dekkers learn how to black-out a home and build a shelter in the event of an air raid, and prepare a Woolton pie for Christmas dinner. Historians Joshua Levine, Carol Harris and Mike Brown offer an insight into the impact of rationing and evacuation on family life.
