Moment Esther Rantzen surprises Nicholas Winton with children he saved

In 1988, Dame Esther Rantzen surprised Sir Nicholas Winton on an episode of That's Life! by bringing together children he had saved from Nazi forces during World War II. His work remained largely unknown for almost 50 years until his wife discovered a scrapbook in their attic containing the names and photos of the 669 mostly Jewish children he had helped evacuate from Czechoslovakia to Britain via trains known as Kindertransports. One of these saved children, Lady Milena Grenfell-Baines (then nine-year-old Milena Fleischmann), met Sir Nicholas for the first time on this episode after Rantzen's intervention. The reunion and recognition of Winton’s heroic efforts were made possible only through Dame Esther’s involvement in broadcasting his story.
