Broadcaster Piers Plowright explores five sound-worlds - some from far back in his life and some more recent - which still resonate with him. In this first episode, he returns to the small Welsh village he was evacuated to during the Second World War, to find the family that took him, his mother, and sister, into their house. With four of the Thomas siblings, now all in the 80s, he explores their different, sometimes conflicting, memories of the years 1943 to 1945 and remembers and recreates the sounds that surrounded them. Produced by Alan Hall A Falling Tree production for Â鶹Éç Radio 4.
