History
It has been 100 years since the end of the First World War, so this week Lorna reports on a little known aspect of life on the frontline. We speak about the role of carrier pigeons and other animals during the battles of WWI.
It’s an unusual topic, with pigeons named President Wilson and Cher Ami, and even a pig on a ship.
