Part of an email received about Charlotte Gray.
I mention this because it all started in 2001/2 when I was the instigator
and Associate Producer of the Channel 4 documentary "Behind Enemy Lines: the
Real Charlotte Grays" after I'd tracked down the whereabouts of all of the
then eight surviving women of SOE's French Section's original 39. Four
appeared in the documentary.
As with the movie itself we filmed some reconstruction sequences for the doc
in and around St Antonin and Lavaurette, and as the programme was first
broadcast two nights before the Royal premiere of Charlotte Gray I ended up
becoming involved with that too.
I'm pretty confident that a number of your members would be interested to
hear about local resistance activities, the German presence in the area, RAF
drops etc. I've filmed interviews with surviving Maquis members from
Tarn-et-Garonne and the Lot as well as other members of 'the resistance' who
operated in many other parts of France.
