NPS Broadcasting has screened a new 13-part history series for children about the Second World War entitled 13 In The War. The series is presented by Lisa Wade, who presents each programme from an historic location. Each episode also includes authentic archive footage and gripping drama scenes. In each drama scene in the 13 In The War series, a child takes centre stage. For instance, we experience the beginning of the war through the eyes of Dirk, a ten-year-old boy whose mother is killed during the bombing of Rotterdam. The story of the National Socialist Movement, known as the NSB, is illustrated by Corrie when her father becomes an NSB mayor, and two sisters, named Roos and Kaat, show us how the Jews were persecuted during World War II. Each dramatised story is alternated with archive footage and stories on location in the hope that the series will make World War II more accessible and understandable to children.
13 in the War is a series for children from 8 to 12 years about World War 2, with archive footage, new material and drama. We adapted the archive footage in a way we hope that children keep focused on the programme and don't loose their attention.

The Park Hill flats were among the most pioneering public housing projects of Fifties Britain. They epitomised a spirit of idealism, optimism that infused the post-war decade as architects rebuilt the country in a new style, creating a utopia for the first tenants of Park Hill. Famous design elements like the streets in the sky became internationally recognisable. The estate's fortunes fluctuated throughout the decades and in the nineties it was listed by English Heritage as one of the most architecturally significant post-war housing estates in the country. Its extraordinary history's charted through archive, the residents, designers and planners involved.
Saving Britain's Past is a seven-part series which, decade by decade, takes us on a chronological and geographical journey around Britain. Chronicling the stories of the British men and women who have campaigned and protested to protect and preserve their heritage, the series extensively uses film archives to underscore the historic dimension to each debate to bring the social context visually alive. With contributions from surviving eye-witnesses, planners and campaigners, Tom Dyckhoff (architecture critic for The Times) steers a balanced course through the heritage minefield, covering this emotive subject, the factional debates, commercial pressures and the Utopian aspirations of modernisers.

A clip-based documentary for the BBC’s Learning Zone. Using archive footage of first-person testimony and news reports of the time, the programme charts the struggle against apartheid from 1948 to 1994. The footage has been selected to reflect specific and challenging views on apartheid for today’s children and young people in order to stimulate discussion. Those directly involved express their views on events which made history, including the jailing of Nelson Mandela, the Pass Laws, the massacres at Sharpeville and Soweto, as well as interviews with Nelson Mandela including one from 1961 whilst still in hiding.
By using only contemporaneous footage of key incidents in the apartheid struggle, combined with archive interviews with those present at the time, this programme provides a primary source for children and young people. Each item is designed for a teacher to use in the classroom to stimulate debate and discussion across a range of curriculum areas and brings to life the views of the people at the time. Providing a historical perspective for key events, the programme has been constructed without extra commentary so that the events and people speak for themselves.
