For You The War Is Over · Sep 3, 2026 · 42m

There have been many books written on the Great Escape, whether looking at the story of the escape itself, like Brickhill's original, or the investigation, or even biographical books about individual Great Escapers. We were joined by one such author, Guy Walters, to discuss his experience of researching and writing his book, as well as his reflections on The Great Escape as well.

For You The War Is Over is a podcast, hosted by Dave Robertson and Tony Hoskins, which looks at the real life stories of Prisoner-of-War escapes from the the Second World War.
