Survivors: Portraits Of The Holocaust BBC2, 9pm

What they went through is unimaginable, but the faces of the seven Holocaust survivors who have been chosen for portraits commissioned by Prince Charles reveal horror, humanity and hope in a way that goes far beyond words.

This unforgettable documentary marking Holocaust Memorial Day films the process of seven artists capturing their subjects on canvas (right) for an exhibition from January 27 at the Queen’s Gallery in Buckingham Palace (transferring in March to Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh).

Over two years we see how the friendships blossom between the artists and their subjects, who speak in detail about their memories, the incredible stories of survival and the painful emotions they still experience daily 80 years on. Prince Charles also speaks about the importance of the project. ★★★★★

Get Puzzling!
