The Commandant’s Shadow follows 4 people - a father and son and mother and daughter - as they confront their painful and very different hereditary burdens.

Hans Juergen Höss is the 87-year-old son of Rudolf Höss who masterminded the murder of over a million Jews as Camp Commandant of Auschwitz. While Hans Juergen enjoyed a happy childhood playing with toys at the family home in Auschwitz, Jewish teenager Anita Lasker Wallfisch was playing for her life in the Auschwitz Women’s Orchestra. Both experienced the death camp at the same time but on opposite sides of the barbed wire fence.

At the heart of the film is the historic moment - 80 years on - when the two come face to face. Together with their children, they explore the trauma that has rippled down the generations.

The film features original excerpts from Rudolf Höss’ long-forgotten autobiography, written shortly before his execution.

If your life has “hit the buffers” in the pandemic, as it did for David Cameron’s former Remain right-hand man Craig Oliver, this 12-part interview series might inspire you to at least try to look at things differently. Oliver speaks candidly with outwardly privileged, successful people such as Ruth Davidson and Richard Curtis – all living with trauma or tragedy, and sharing their unseen, deep cuts. Episode one sees him interview George Alagiah on his battle with bowel cancer.

From Ukraine to Israel: An Exodus for Our Time

A radio documentary about the exodus of Ukrainians to Israel and the unusual life awaiting them in the Middle East.

Read More

Around 30,000 Ukrainians, perhaps a third of them Jewish, have escaped to Israel, where 15 percent of the population is Russian. (An estimated million Jews emigrated to Israel at the turn of the 1990s.) This, warns Tim Samuels, could have “profound consequences”. Russians and Ukrainians mingle in a Tel Aviv immigration hotel; Samuels asks if there is a friendly atmosphere. The answer is ambiguous. Opinions differ as to whether Russian émigrés have integrated. Will everybody be allowed to stay? No conclusions are reached but Jana from Kyiv feels confident. Samuels, incidentally, is well-placed as a presenter. His Ukrainian great-grandfather was part of another wave of Jewish emigration when some two million Jews settled in the US and UK before the First World War.
