78-year-old Brian Read grew up in south east London during World War II. As young children, Brian and his older brother Tony were inseparable from their cousin Denis - all three boys played happily in the streets together, despite the ever-present threat of German bombers. However, in the postwar housing shake-up, the cousins ended up going their separate ways, and it was only with Tony's recent death that Brian resolved once and for all to track down his friend and cousin. Now, nearly 70 years after last setting eyes on each other, Brian and Denis are reunited once again, before taking an emotional and evocative trip around their childhood haunts.
