You'll just need to keep a really steady hand for this next bit

:00:10.:00:12.

This is going to take all my concentration -

:00:13.:00:16.

Very tricky, you know? CHUCKLES

:00:17.:00:34.

Hello and welcome to The One Show with Matt Baker.

:00:35.:00:38.

And Alex Jones - Tonight's guests are two of the stars from the BBC's

:00:39.:00:41.

award winning medical drama, Holby City - Hugh

:00:42.:00:43.

APPLAUSE Your fans are in the night.

:00:44.:01:02.

Steady. We saw you haven't got the steadiest of

:01:03.:01:05.

Guy - you play Henrick Hanssen the hospital chief and a surgeon

:01:06.:01:08.

in Holby City and as we've just seen you don't have the steadiest

:01:09.:01:11.

of hands which is a bit of a problem for you at work isn't it?

:01:12.:01:15.

it was a big show to come into. I was playing this brilliant surgeon.

:01:16.:01:19.

I am incompetent and I know nothing about it. Marcel, who plays one of

:01:20.:01:26.

the characters, I had to hold a very precise implement with a very long

:01:27.:01:33.

surgical thing. You still haven't got it, have you? Are you with me?

:01:34.:01:38.

There was a slight tremor of fear in my arm. Rosie grabbed my arm and

:01:39.:01:45.

said the first assistant director, is that in shot? And she calmly and

:01:46.:01:53.

quietly held my arm firm while I did my intricate bit of stuff and I've

:01:54.:01:55.

loved her ever since. Good team member.

:01:56.:01:57.

Hugh, you may play surgeon Ric Griffin, we've discovered that

:01:58.:02:00.

you've been in need of medical attention yourself lately -

:02:01.:02:02.

It did not require any hospital treatment. I'm not a good patient. I

:02:03.:02:11.

like to think I can heal myself. This was a sporting injury. Very

:02:12.:02:18.

much in the same vein of Usain Bolt. I was running the anchor leg in the

:02:19.:02:24.

relay. I tore a calf muscle. Painful. I have been limping and

:02:25.:02:30.

milking it ever since. No hospital treatment required.

:02:31.:02:31.

We'll be talking more about what's going on in Holby later.

:02:32.:02:34.

We'll also be chatting to musician Marcus Mumford and footballing

:02:35.:02:36.

legend Les Ferdinand about their charity football match

:02:37.:02:38.

featuring a host of celebrities to raise funds for the victims

:02:39.:02:41.

From Friday the government is due to announce that the majority

:02:42.:02:56.

of all three and four year olds in England will be entitled

:02:57.:02:58.

to thirty hours of free nursery care a week

:02:59.:03:03.

but many nurseries are saying they won't be taking part

:03:04.:03:05.

in the scheme as the numbers simply don't add up for them.

:03:06.:03:08.

Kevin Duala has been to visit one nursery that is finding a way

:03:09.:03:11.

to keep costs down by turning to parents for help.

:03:12.:03:14.

With childcare costs going up, many parents are left questioning whether

:03:15.:03:19.

staying at home to look after their children is more cost-effective than

:03:20.:03:24.

going to work. But now more radical solutions are being looked at. Not

:03:25.:03:28.

only allowing parents cheaper childcare but also spending more

:03:29.:03:33.

time with their kids. Those solutions include parent partnership

:03:34.:03:37.

nurseries. With the parents helping to run things. A handful of these

:03:38.:03:43.

already exist across the UK but now childcare experts are looking to

:03:44.:03:47.

expand the model, specifically across more deprived areas. In New

:03:48.:03:51.

Zealand and Canada it forms a big part of the market. We've been

:03:52.:03:55.

looking at whether that would be appropriate in the UK. I imagine

:03:56.:03:58.

there is a massive financial implication for the parents. There

:03:59.:04:02.

can be savings. Most of the parents we've talked to are more interested

:04:03.:04:06.

in the benefits of seeing what happens to their children while in

:04:07.:04:10.

childcare. How do they work and do regular parents at the time,

:04:11.:04:13.

patients, and skills to help out in a busy nursery? -- have the time.

:04:14.:04:21.

I've come to this nursery in Tower Hamlets. It has been successfully

:04:22.:04:25.

operating as a parent partnership since 2004. I brought along a couple

:04:26.:04:30.

of one show viewers to see if nurseries like this could work for

:04:31.:04:34.

them. Mother of two Sarah is from rain, Essex. It's very expensive to

:04:35.:04:41.

send them in for one morning. I stay at home with him while dad goes to

:04:42.:04:46.

work. Full-time dad Simon is from Northwich, Manchester and is due to

:04:47.:04:50.

go back to work later this year. I just got a place at a local nursery,

:04:51.:04:54.

starting in September. Both will be seeing what it is like to be a

:04:55.:04:58.

parent volunteer. Sarah, you will be helping out in the kitchen. Perfect.

:04:59.:05:03.

You will be on the shop floor, working with the kids, is that all

:05:04.:05:11.

right? Perfect. Catherine has been volunteering here for four years and

:05:12.:05:15.

fit it around a full-time job. On a Wednesday morning every week there

:05:16.:05:19.

cannot be working. I am here. I'm not making an income whilst I am

:05:20.:05:23.

here. I don't think it is actually that much more cost-effective than

:05:24.:05:27.

another nursery, but I think you get the added value of being involved as

:05:28.:05:33.

a parent. All parents that work here goes through basic childcare

:05:34.:05:37.

training and are subject to criminal checks. They are there to help the

:05:38.:05:46.

five permanent members of staff. And families have to commit to at least

:05:47.:05:51.

one shift per week. This way the parents save on fees for that day

:05:52.:05:54.

and the nursery saves on wages. This is your plate. In the kitchen, the

:05:55.:06:02.

parents are responsible for creating, buying, and preparing the

:06:03.:06:06.

menu for the day. Today they have got green peas, a leaf of spinach,

:06:07.:06:15.

that is just so they get to meet it. She has been juggling working here

:06:16.:06:19.

with a full-time job since September. Is there an issue with

:06:20.:06:23.

favouritism? If you are working in a group and your child needs you, do

:06:24.:06:27.

you go to them first? You would think, but when you spend enough

:06:28.:06:31.

time in here you become everybody's mum. It's been a really positive

:06:32.:06:36.

experience. Guess what, I helped your moneymaker that Peter. Some

:06:37.:06:41.

have reservations about this type of nursery. -- helps your money make

:06:42.:06:50.

that pizza. Some people think that parents won't be able to meet the

:06:51.:06:56.

same standards as staff. The qualified professionals bring

:06:57.:06:58.

experience, child protection, safeguarding on all of these areas,

:06:59.:07:02.

it's difficult to train all of the parents volunteering in those areas.

:07:03.:07:07.

But what our volunteer parents think? Sarah, Simon, how are you?

:07:08.:07:13.

Good. You have got involved and asked questions, what are your final

:07:14.:07:19.

thoughts? As long as the Czechs are in place it can benefit everybody.

:07:20.:07:30.

-- as long as the checks are in place it can benefit everybody.

:07:31.:07:34.

There will never be a one size fits all solution. But with pilot schemes

:07:35.:07:39.

starting late in the year it seems like experiments like these can

:07:40.:07:41.

offer one radical solution, at least.

:07:42.:07:44.

For more information on the Government's new childcare

:07:45.:07:45.

As regular viewers of Holby City will no you two don't always see eye

:07:46.:07:59.

to eye. Die, you are a CEO, Hugh, you are a surgeon. -- Guy, you are a

:08:00.:08:06.

CEO. Let's look at some moments here. In these clips you need more

:08:07.:08:13.

than a sticking plaster to fix your problems. Please, don't let me into

:08:14.:08:19.

rocked. I'm not interested in playing power games. It's time for a

:08:20.:08:30.

change. Why is that funny? -- please do let me

:08:31.:08:33.

That was good. How close did you get? I am pretty safe to fight. I

:08:34.:08:50.

would never dream of breaking his nose. But you are frightening. You

:08:51.:08:59.

are the CEO of the hospital. Holby City has been going for 17 years

:09:00.:09:05.

now. Nearly 18. You have managed to avoid the NHS cutbacks. There is a

:09:06.:09:14.

story coming up which involves a merger with another hospital. A

:09:15.:09:21.

drama programme does what it aims to. It does reflect issues people

:09:22.:09:26.

are having. You have been talking about the funding are not. It's not

:09:27.:09:30.

just about the patients. It is very much real life issues. It would be

:09:31.:09:35.

strange if we didn't. It is supposed to be an NHS hospital. The NHS is in

:09:36.:09:41.

crisis. If we ignored it it would seem like we were living in a

:09:42.:09:45.

fairyland and the programme, the show always does try to reflect what

:09:46.:09:50.

is going on. But it is difficult because we film three months before

:09:51.:09:54.

transmission, so we can never quite second-guess what will happen with

:09:55.:10:00.

cuts and Brexit and so forth. And EU nationals leaving the NHS. It feels

:10:01.:10:07.

incredibly real. It is shot at Elstree. We sometimes end up there

:10:08.:10:13.

for Children In Need. It is built like a hospital. Even when you drive

:10:14.:10:17.

around the area where the ambulances go through. Guy, you said he felt

:10:18.:10:25.

nervous, and you can understand why because it feels very real. When I

:10:26.:10:31.

joined, I was nervous, because it is a deeply loved programme and at its

:10:32.:10:35.

best it is a very good programme. You don't want to be the tall idiot,

:10:36.:10:41.

the new surgeon, letting it down, so I was trembling. Brilliantly cast.

:10:42.:10:47.

You do look just like a surgeon. I have a few surgeon mates and you

:10:48.:10:53.

absolutely fit the bill. On the occasions, if I go to hospital to

:10:54.:10:58.

visit a friend, or something, you get strange looks. I am sure. People

:10:59.:11:03.

doing double takes in the corridor wondering why I am there. And some

:11:04.:11:08.

of the doctors think, I'm sure I was in medical school with him, cannot

:11:09.:11:13.

quite place him. One day I was visiting a friend in St George 's in

:11:14.:11:16.

tooting and a man came up to me in the canteen and said I can't believe

:11:17.:11:21.

you are here, my wife is a big fan of the show, she loves Henrick

:11:22.:11:26.

Hanssen, my character, she came in for a massive heart operation last

:11:27.:11:32.

week. And he said she had said if only Henrick Hanssen had been here I

:11:33.:11:36.

would be all right. But we went and said hello to her. That was nice.

:11:37.:11:42.

She really liked it. And you had a similar experience, didn't you? Mine

:11:43.:11:48.

was poignant. I was on holiday. South-west France. I was going round

:11:49.:11:55.

a market with a family friend. I saw a lady in the corner of my eye

:11:56.:12:02.

trying to get my attention, I walked away, but she did corner me and

:12:03.:12:08.

said, thank you for saving my life. And I was puzzled. She explained

:12:09.:12:13.

that she had been a big fan of the series. And had the same cancer that

:12:14.:12:26.

my character had. It had metastasised to the liver. Usually

:12:27.:12:29.

when that happens it is a fairly fatal. But because we have a

:12:30.:12:34.

brilliant surgeon in the shape of Henrick Hanssen, he gave me what is

:12:35.:12:42.

called a special procedure, basically chopping up my liver, and

:12:43.:12:47.

I lived to see another day. She had the same condition. She demanded a

:12:48.:12:52.

second opinion after following the story. Because it had also

:12:53.:13:00.

metastasised to her liver. And there she was two years later telling the

:13:01.:13:05.

tale. She told the story to me, my wife, we all had wet eyes. If she is

:13:06.:13:11.

watching I hope she gets in touch. That is the power of television

:13:12.:13:15.

drama. We inadvertently did something good, well, you did. You

:13:16.:13:19.

have been there for quite some time. Guy you took a two year break

:13:20.:13:23.

from Holby city and ended I know the joy of doing what you

:13:24.:13:34.

did. Really? Well, ever since I was a tiny thing I wanted to be a coach

:13:35.:13:39.

driver. A lovely thing. I thought, you are 51, do it. I went to Giles

:13:40.:13:45.

and Julian in Chingford. Not as posh as they sound.

:13:46.:13:49.

CHUCKLES They taught me to drive a coach.

:13:50.:13:53.

I've always wanted to be a coach driver. I have passed my license. I

:13:54.:13:57.

have driven professionally for a company in Wimbledon. I had to say

:13:58.:14:02.

to some of the passengers who looked extremely worried and concerned that

:14:03.:14:05.

this bloke off the telly was going to be driving them to Birmingham. I

:14:06.:14:09.

did say, believe me, I never qualified as a surgeon but I have

:14:10.:14:13.

passed my bus driving test. CHUCKLES

:14:14.:14:18.

If they ever take this and Holby City of the air, we can drive

:14:19.:14:24.

together. How come? It is a long story. It is good, isn't it? Yes.

:14:25.:14:33.

Holby City is on at 8pm tonight on BBC One and

:14:34.:14:36.

Regular viewers of Holby City will know that the drama mirrors

:14:37.:14:39.

the real world of medical developments and cutting edge

:14:40.:14:42.

techniques - so writers will be interested in this next VT

:14:43.:14:44.

the first NHS patient who benefit a new technique which has enabled

:14:45.:14:50.

You know how irritating it is when you get a smart on your glasses?

:14:51.:14:58.

Just imagine what it would be like if you couldn't wipe it away and it

:14:59.:15:02.

covered up everything you wanted to see. This is a simulation of

:15:03.:15:08.

age-related macular degeneration, it affects more than 600,000 people in

:15:09.:15:14.

the UK and so far there is no cure. Annie has been living with the

:15:15.:15:18.

disease for eight years, but the loss of her vision is still

:15:19.:15:22.

painfully vivid. When I was reading all of the writing was going up. It

:15:23.:15:29.

was all slanted. They sent me to a consultant. He diagnosed me with

:15:30.:15:38.

AMD, there was no cure. I was devastated. I cried. In fact,

:15:39.:15:43.

talking about it now... It's just awful. The disease tends to affect

:15:44.:15:52.

people over 65, but Annie was only 57. The change for Annie and her

:15:53.:15:56.

partner was dramatic. It was a god send. He is my eyes. Directly

:15:57.:16:14.

looking at anyone, it's just a mist. The biggest challenge has been

:16:15.:16:18.

looking after her grandchildren. My daughter works late at night, I put

:16:19.:16:22.

him to bed, and I cannot read him a bedtime story. But there is light at

:16:23.:16:31.

the end of the tunnel. A hospital has developed a procedure but it is

:16:32.:16:36.

only available privately. Now, recognising its huge benefits the

:16:37.:16:40.

NHS has agreed to fund it. Today, Annie is the first NHS patient to

:16:41.:16:42.

have the operation. It causes damage to cells at the

:16:43.:16:51.

back of the eye. The background should be orange and you can see it

:16:52.:16:55.

is more yellow and there is no damage to that area. Because the

:16:56.:16:59.

damaged area cannot be repaired, the only option is to compensate for it.

:17:00.:17:05.

Specialists have developed a tiny telescope which becomes like

:17:06.:17:09.

telephoto lens and a camera. It projects the image onto the healthy

:17:10.:17:13.

parts of the retina making the blindspot seem much smaller. And

:17:14.:17:18.

they will be able to recognise the eyes, the mouth, the rest of the

:17:19.:17:24.

face, she might not see the tip of the nose. Only one I will have the

:17:25.:17:29.

telescope giving her two sorts of vision. The eye that has the implant

:17:30.:17:34.

and will be able to function and see centrally and the other eye will

:17:35.:17:39.

make sure she does not bump into things. There are risks but it is

:17:40.:17:44.

alike transforming operation. Annie is being given a local anaesthetic,

:17:45.:17:48.

it will numb the pain and stop are seeing and this will help to stay

:17:49.:17:54.

calm as she will be awake during the procedure. I am not frightened, I

:17:55.:17:59.

just want it done. How are you? Beautiful. The first task is to

:18:00.:18:04.

remove the natural lens to make way for the telescope. We have got very

:18:05.:18:08.

little space here. You can damage the cornea and you do not want to go

:18:09.:18:13.

into deep to damage the sack work the telescope will be inserted. With

:18:14.:18:18.

the lens removed, the doctor can now implant the telescope. It is a big

:18:19.:18:25.

device for a eye. It lodges a whole system of lenses in their in order

:18:26.:18:30.

to provide the magnification we need. Inserting the telescope has to

:18:31.:18:35.

be done with the utmost care. This is a critical moment now. That is

:18:36.:18:44.

beautiful. He is happy with the positioning, but the incision is

:18:45.:18:48.

closed. How are you doing down there? Very good. We are closing up

:18:49.:18:53.

now and you have been an amazing patient. It has all gone well and

:18:54.:18:58.

Annie's next challenge will be learning to use her new eyes. In a

:18:59.:19:03.

couple of weeks she will need to start rehabilitation and this will

:19:04.:19:07.

take between four and six months and she will learn how to focus and use

:19:08.:19:11.

the telescope to enable her to improve their quality of life and

:19:12.:19:14.

her central vision. It is the beginning of a long journey for

:19:15.:19:18.

Annie but she is clear which he is looking forward to most. Their

:19:19.:19:25.

faces, their expressions, like Finn laughing and that is what I want

:19:26.:19:31.

most of all. Well, we spoke to Annie today and it has been nine months

:19:32.:19:34.

since the operation which happened in November. She says that she can

:19:35.:19:40.

now read but it is difficult, she sees progress but it is still hard

:19:41.:19:44.

work but more importantly, she can now see the faces of her

:19:45.:19:47.

grandchildren which is the main thing she wanted. She recognises it

:19:48.:19:51.

is early days and these things take time. We wish all the very best. We

:19:52.:19:58.

are joined by Les Ferdinand and musician Marcus.

:19:59.:20:05.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. -- Marcus Mumford. You're here to talk about

:20:06.:20:10.

this charity football match to raise funds for the victims of the

:20:11.:20:14.

Grenfell fire. Where did this idea come from initially, Les? Basically,

:20:15.:20:24.

when I saw the fire on the night of the fire, I got some messages saying

:20:25.:20:28.

about the fire and that was one from Tony Fernandes, one of the owners of

:20:29.:20:36.

QPR who said they set something up at the stadium for donations. The

:20:37.:20:40.

next message was let's try and do a concert or something to raise funds.

:20:41.:20:46.

I grew up on the estate and I said, I grew up playing football around

:20:47.:20:51.

here, we are a football club, put on a football match. See how we can

:20:52.:20:55.

help. I know a lot of the victims are talking about not getting enough

:20:56.:21:01.

help and there is not enough care. I said to Tony, let's see if we can do

:21:02.:21:04.

something, get some people together and see if we can do something to

:21:05.:21:10.

help. How do you come into this market is? You did not know each

:21:11.:21:16.

other. I had a little miniature flares when I was a kid! --

:21:17.:21:25.

miniature of Les Ferdinand. When we met, I was like, your head is much

:21:26.:21:33.

Mahler. I live locally and I saw the Tower on that Wednesday morning.

:21:34.:21:40.

Like a lot of people who live in the area, I went down and was privileged

:21:41.:21:45.

enough to be in the room with survivors from the first day and met

:21:46.:21:49.

lots of different groups and watch them come together and start finding

:21:50.:21:57.

each other. Once having the privilege, then it led to a

:21:58.:22:01.

responsibility to stick around and try and find creative ways to try

:22:02.:22:04.

and support their process of healing. They have been through so

:22:05.:22:10.

much and it is hard to get your head around and why they need so much

:22:11.:22:14.

more support than there are currently getting. Part of thinking

:22:15.:22:18.

creatively was thinking over the summer, what can we do and we

:22:19.:22:23.

started talking to QPR about a game and they were amenable to the idea

:22:24.:22:26.

of helping to support a football programme over the summer for kids

:22:27.:22:32.

which we had done and it has been amazing. We did that at the Westway

:22:33.:22:37.

with QPR, Chelsea, full coaches all coming down to coach the children.

:22:38.:22:43.

It is a way for them to be occupied in the long summer months after the

:22:44.:22:46.

disaster and a bit of free childcare for the parents. It has been cool

:22:47.:22:52.

and that culminates in this Game4Grenfell. You are playing as

:22:53.:23:00.

well? I am managing one of the teams.

:23:01.:23:05.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. Alan Shearer, there is some friendly rivalry there

:23:06.:23:10.

in Newcastle, is he going to be on the pitch? He broke his arm last

:23:11.:23:17.

week. Convenient! It is not a bad excuse. He is coming all the way

:23:18.:23:24.

from Newcastle because he wants to be part of it. He is going to

:23:25.:23:28.

manage, he was going to play because I was playing but then he broke his

:23:29.:23:33.

arm. So many people are coming down. There is quite a team. I am going to

:23:34.:23:39.

bring this end. Look at the team list. I will let everyone at home

:23:40.:23:45.

save. You have got some great names. Olly Murs. Tiny temper. Jarvis

:23:46.:23:57.

Cocker. Jamie Dornan. James Bay. Richard Ashcroft, a star-macro... --

:23:58.:24:12.

Serge Pizzorno. Today we were able to announce that Mo Farah will be

:24:13.:24:20.

playing as well. Linford Christie is coming down, he cannot play but he

:24:21.:24:27.

wants to support us. Are you playing, Marcus? I am, if he gives

:24:28.:24:36.

me a shot. His idea is to nutmeg me. What is that? It means put the ball

:24:37.:24:39.

through someone's legs get it on the other side. He does not realise, I

:24:40.:24:44.

am the manager! He might not get an opportunity to do it. What is the

:24:45.:24:50.

situation with tickets? How do people get them? Are there any left?

:24:51.:24:57.

There is still a lot available. On the website for Game4Grenfell. There

:24:58.:25:01.

are still tickets available. The point of this thing is to show

:25:02.:25:05.

support and love to this community that has been through a lot. It is a

:25:06.:25:11.

day to focus on something else, other than the tragedy. We really

:25:12.:25:16.

want to show support. We want to welcome people to the stadium. It

:25:17.:25:20.

will not end here. This is just part of it. We want to be supporting them

:25:21.:25:25.

through this, we want to put programmes on as well. It is not the

:25:26.:25:30.

be all and end all, it is one small part of supporting the community.

:25:31.:25:34.

They will need support for a long time and there are issues about

:25:35.:25:38.

housing, justice and honouring the memory of those who were lost and

:25:39.:25:41.

listening to survivors. APPLAUSE. For those who cannot get

:25:42.:25:48.

to the stadium, they can watch it. It is on Sky 1 and Pick. Good luck

:25:49.:25:56.

with the nutmeg! Whatever that means. Three o'clock on Sky 1. When

:25:57.:26:03.

Ian Lavine set out to researchers family tree, he could never have

:26:04.:26:06.

predicted that it could have branched out as much as it did. We

:26:07.:26:11.

sent route to Watford along with our cameras to capture the ultimate

:26:12.:26:17.

family photo -- Ruth Goodman. For two decades Iain Levine had been on

:26:18.:26:21.

a mission to find his extended family, who he thought had been

:26:22.:26:29.

virtually wiped out. My great grandfather was born in 1839, one of

:26:30.:26:37.

nine brothers. They were born in a little village in Latvia. While most

:26:38.:26:45.

of the family stayed in Latvia, Ian's great-great-grandfather came

:26:46.:26:50.

to England in the 1800, a move which saved Ian side of the family from

:26:51.:26:56.

the German invasion in World War II. In 1941, the Nazis came along and

:26:57.:27:01.

their mission was to march in and kill every Jewish person. We lost

:27:02.:27:08.

hundreds of Kuklas in the Holocaust. He wondered if any Latvian Kuklas

:27:09.:27:12.

had survived and set about finding their relatives. He managed to track

:27:13.:27:21.

them down in countries as far away as Australia, America, Russia and

:27:22.:27:26.

Israel. And today, hundreds of the descendants of the original nine

:27:27.:27:30.

Kuklas brothers are gathered for a family reunion. Take your

:27:31.:27:36.

photographs now, please, this is history, you will not have another

:27:37.:27:40.

chance. Nine different descendants here. What a fantastic thing to have

:27:41.:27:47.

all of them here today. The family thought they had no Kuklas left.

:27:48.:27:51.

Reuniting them, that makes my heart sing with joy. Many of these

:27:52.:27:55.

relatives had never met before, so how are they to tell who is related

:27:56.:28:00.

to which of the original nine brothers? Sixth generation Kukla has

:28:01.:28:06.

the answer? There are nine branches to this family. We have coded them

:28:07.:28:17.

in nine colours. Everyone gets a coloured lanyard and the colour will

:28:18.:28:21.

denote their line of descent. This woman has come all the way from

:28:22.:28:26.

Florida. She has been helping Ian bring together the ninth Kukla

:28:27.:28:31.

family trees. It is remarkably collaborative. And people Lee

:28:32.:28:37.

submitted their trees and our job was to assemble all these trees

:28:38.:28:42.

together into one. It is such fun and we are meeting people that we

:28:43.:28:48.

never knew existed. And hearing the stories, it is so interesting. And

:28:49.:28:52.

some of those stories are emerging for the first time. This man has

:28:53.:28:57.

only recently told his daughter about how he survived the Holocaust

:28:58.:29:01.

while others died at the hands of the Nazis. It was difficult to talk

:29:02.:29:14.

about it. Sure. He is joking. He told me how my grandfather was

:29:15.:29:21.

killed. And how my great-grandfather was burned with over 1200 people in

:29:22.:29:27.

a synagogue including other Kuklas from my family. There is a history

:29:28.:29:32.

here that binds this family together, like few others. The Kukla

:29:33.:29:39.

family tree is now 180 feet long and among those who found new relatives

:29:40.:29:44.

are Alexander and his sister from Israel. We thought that everyone was

:29:45.:29:50.

gone in the Holocaust. Two people with no people to two people with a

:29:51.:29:59.

huge family! Unbelievable. And as a memento of this time, when all the

:30:00.:30:03.

modern-day Kukla generations are brought together, they are taking a

:30:04.:30:07.

new family photograph, so very different from the last one. This

:30:08.:30:12.

reunion is a celebration of survival, a celebration of the nine

:30:13.:30:18.

brothers and also a tearful memory of all the ones who have died and

:30:19.:30:22.

been lost in the Holocaust. So many died, but so many survived. The

:30:23.:30:26.

stories of the Holocaust can be passed down the generation, we must

:30:27.:30:29.

never forget and allow the world to forget. Imagine the birthday cards!

:30:30.:30:36.

Imagine how much you would spend on stamps. If you have got a reunion

:30:37.:30:39.

story you would like us to live that or you want to trace a family

:30:40.:30:43.

member, e-mail us at the usual address and our team might be able

:30:44.:30:49.

to help. A big thank you to all of our guests this evening. The

:30:50.:30:58.

Game4Grenfell is on Saturday on sky one and Pick. You can see Holby City

:30:59.:31:03.

tonight. We will see you tomorrow with Professor Brian Cox. Goodbye.
