Manage episode 456256745 series 1942697
Talbot House was an 'everyman's club' in the Ypres sector in Belgium during the First World War. Established behind the lines in the town of Poperinghe, Talbot House was a place soldiers could come to for some respite from the horrors of the battlefield. Today it has been preserved as a museum, dedicated to telling the story of the house and its foundation by Australian chaplain Tubby Clayton. Mat visits the house, escorted by its director, Simon Louagie, to explore the stories of the lives and deaths of its many visitors.
Presenter: Mat McLachlan
Guest: Simon Louagie
