""The Polish Guides were amazing," says Ms Hampton. "They were part of the resistance. They were messengers, they smuggled food to prisoners of war, smuggled Jewish children out and kept them safe. Many of the Guides were Jewish themselves. "They found their way through the sewers of Warsaw - that bit really just kept making my hair stand on end. They had an amazing principle: 'not to die, until the death'. So when they were in concentration camps they didn't just give up even though they knew they would die.""
