The Girl in the Diary
Geraint Talfan Davies reveals how his uncle Idris Morgan's friendship with a German girl in 1930s Nazi Germany brought him face to face with Hitler's adjutant Wilhelm Bruckner.
Journalist and broadcaster Geraint Talfan Davies journeys to Berlin to uncover the story about his uncle, Idris Morgan, a young Welshman witnessing Nazi power at first hand in the 1930s. His uncle's diary is his only guide as he unveils the story of a friendship with a young German girl and her mysterious death - a death that brought Idris face to face with Wilhelm Br眉ckner, Adolf Hitler's chief adjutant, only days before the massacre of the Night of the Long Knives. This is a personal story of a dark epiphany, as well as a moving tale of an ordinary family adjusting to the growth of Hitler's power.
