recognize anyone. movies but one of them may be. i mean i don't remember much from that time i hope it's just not the one except that it's a whole lotta shorter's and so you know because they spoke german. or you mean the dutch as a back then when people had german they thought hitler was just around the corner. you know the doorbell rang an interpreter asked whether i'd mind talking to a couple of germans who used to live here she had with us on the go then i said ok and invited them in so it was a man and his wife so they brought me some trousers i still have them. a pair of black trousers. and that.

the problem is that the shorters did not leave a forwarding address so how can i track them down. i decided to try the german federal archives fibroids. germans who were driven out of the eastern territories after the war could qualify for compensation if they renounced all future claims they had to fill out an application and provide an address. stephanie. maybe she can help me. as a must read i seen him in your good ok ok says he owned a car a horse it was a used car. he bought it in 1937 for 3000 marks coughed easy says the very mocked confiscated it 5 years later this is

the schlock. here's a list of everything he says he lost no mice and alice for. all we've seen that car in the film so maybe we can find a record of the car here in the file just us testes as to how he and his violin get now off i have to ask in the documents he describes the cars he owned. it could be that to shut it up at family went with water off the family into weekend trip with friends or relatives so whatever but the other possibility is of course that there was it was not their own cars so and you know the cars quite prominent in this feature film so maybe if they made the film because they were so proud off the rented car. damn a rental car so it may not be the schroeders in the pictures after all but

stephanie keeps looking. there is no thought of left yeah i mean. i should say that there is a name for. this is the this is really interesting the 18 year old son is named his name yeah it makes sense yeah i did much didn't appear in any out of focus and. there was a kind of logic at him because he would have been too young at the time to even 945 or 46 he would have. in 10 years old. he has no property so he didn't fill out an application stand so this might be your missing link to have those homes there. that's the one. you are short term was 10 years old in 1946 he still could be alive. maybe i'll be able to find him online.

and see if he has any other relatives. to file show that dietmar was born in bad form brought on today it's culture plates and the district i'm feeling your core i've managed to track him down to date and place of birth match perfectly. that is definitely. he's an artist i know i know he's a hello my name is me look here ditmar shirt is right for me. i'm looking for the shorter family from harrisburg i have something that may belong to your relatives. and i'd like to show it to you if i could. shift it. is this finally the family i'm looking for just for you it's nice to meet you like you say met life friends.

which is not enough now it's incredible when there isn't this year they can be kind enough to stop for a 2nd so i can see the people. right there those are the be pushed on relatives. i snoozed i can't really identify any of those people and the sunni's they're really much too small for me to recognize. the name here. and besides he was pretty young at the time that the film was shot this can develop there could be you know shorter but i can't say for sure. she gained more weight later on but it could be her from. the start but all she wanted to brewery and has back of it is there was huge and old that i remember and. there were 2 vaulted

sellers. to get tough played on the brewery in my grandmother and on call and some other relatives lived there. front there was a park in the taxis and buses used to park there. i made a lot of money i mean i didn't have enough my family but there's backside. after the war all the shorters left. i mean if you have a family photo album. this is that need doing it here this year in the mountains that's me my dad has my mom and it is key it's more it ended by that yeah. i spent a year under occupation and click effects 1st the russians then the polls and i was our collective fate of me things were pretty bad i had no idea why this was happening to us i was just a kid so i didn't ask but when you get all those ideas and i want us out of the

house hands up and we had to find no place to live it was seen one griped been done time in the year later in 1906. we went through the district street by street. and order all the germans to come out and say load us onto a train. guns toilets but it was a great adventure. destroy seen anything like it. was a freight train i set right up front i says it was hanging out over an iron bar and the train moved really slowly and i just watched the scenery and i thought it was quite a pleasant trip. feed i'm going to bother me at all a lot of people are really sad some were crying. and there was a straw to sleep on the sanitary conditions were appalling. that we didn't come across the nicer river. we were still wearing the armbands that the poles had ordered us to wear some tightness we took them off and threw them away we were

going to the west. because. 6 continued north if you did but one didn't get what you inspect the local farmers and residents didn't want to stop there i told us to go back where we came from. outside for a while and then found a place to stay in the stall in the barn after that things got a little more normal. dietmar family have to leave my family wanted to like many with german groups in the 1980 s. it took a long time to do the immigration paperwork and then they aren't curtain came down so we stayed where we were tomorrow i'm going to meet dietmar sister honey sure her palm maybe she can identify the people in the film.

that at least they're never surely late sorry this is a show to go on these and i really sorry i'm late shot there. she was ready to leave but i twisted her on ok. ok. ok so i'm going to explain to you the story of why i'm here. oh oh no hitler and you know it no that's not here learning human this is it is not hitler at a different no. diskettes. when you think it's a dead ringer no doubt about it you don't miss the deaths of spin offs. she was from through this we can see that he was in and it's the people who play the part of the nazi party and also for the party members 2000 before they were

interested in politics my father my father joined the party because he had to have been working for the state he wasn't a true believer just a member i don't need to come up. to asking my mother to join but she refused to do it my husband a mortal indeed but. she had more courage than my father did my model of mahmoud. what sort of where is that a harsh oh right. yeah yeah he caught it and i kill license plate force lesia that's what those with the shorter brothers cars it was their company this is no this film was shot while they were on a trip to the mountains in 1938 or 39 often because you would have none of that you know on the camera and film did it have to do you had they always had the latest high tech gear. yes. absolutely they were

obsessed with their toys. do you recognize me when they. return please. let's just and this time it stands martha and you can see it more clearly here no doubt about it. but that high forehead she was always having headaches. so it's aunt martha who had a high forehead and suffered from migraines. a real person not just an anonymous figure in a brief film clip. on and dietmar suggest that i visit their cousin dieter who lives in the v.a.'s are up plans region he's the last surviving schroeder from the brewery. to horse car

belong to beaters father i think i finally solved this case he is this is the post office house post office. yeah right. and certainly capitol cinema was just a few steps away now. i can still remember 70 years. he certainly can remember the old part of harrisburg his aunt martha even their phone number at the time have you ever been back there. yes there are 4 times that the last time was 3 years ago mine's a one no i son wanted to see the place so off we went or doesn't. do phone my wife comes from the press not all those of us or so we visited professor know. and the reason about the mountains as beautiful. as my home planet is that the fly felt at home again right away so it's

a lot of fun. though. it's time for me to head back home. hif salty hawk for puzzle. it started with a simple family story and turned into a german polish polish german saga. a complex history full of sorrow and personal loss. for her brother who survived the war but they were forced to leave their homeland. there were many victims in my family too. after the war the communists took over in poland and started to eliminating potential opponents. yes to the steep going straight at us but you made it here's the home stretch it was killed it's good there's the gate. to the secret police had

a jail here comes you but you was arrested for being an anti communist because he tried to escape in a courtyard. and they shot it was that. you know. we cemetery straight ahead that's right that's. no more we'll be there in a minute well over here oh yeah. oh alexander a leg you sure lieutenant of the home army code name born in 1916 murdered august 2nd 1905 by the polish date security bureau. we're here also mega actually it was august 6th they got the day crawls up at our new.

top i still can't believe the greater percentage of the 1st of all did so and what it is they never told us where they buried him he just disappeared is the file on him is closed now usual so you can't search for him we spent long days and nights at the cemetery so whenever they've buried someone my mother would take a look out to see if it was alec. do let's really never gave the body back to us that we don't know where they buried him. but as you may be here maybe they're all we can do is guess. this is the fact of the matter is that he's gone. this just spoke for. itself it is.

to have an opportunity to use legislation when they come back next week the problem is that window of opportunity is very very short it's just going to be plenty to debate baseball and even legislation about well even your opinion the prime minister does have policies to correct part of and he's using it in an unconstitutional and illegal to talk about new deal is actually code for saying let's still practices what is happening is the will shift will persist we will be trying to join in mumbai dictator and number. also coming up a u.s. president but once the military to expand beyond earth's gravity with a new space force a major step in that direction takes place today on the ground. you know it is the united states space command the sake of our security both here on earth and in the heavens above president trance direction we are working with congress as we speak to stand up

a new branch of our armed forces. to our viewers on p.b.s. in the united states and all around the world welcome we begin today with the battle over breaks it about to begin members of parliament are valuing to use next week to pass legislation to stop the country from crashing out of the european union on october 31st next week may be the only time they have yesterday prime minister boris johnson announce that he will suspend parliament for 5 weeks ending just before breaks it is scheduled to begin opposition in some conservative lawmakers call the move an abuse of power designed to prevent parliament from preventing a new deal breaks it next week m.p.'s could trying to pass legislation requiring another break that extension there is also talk of a no confidence vote to bring down the prime minister and his government to allow a general election now none of this has a guaranteed outcome what is certain tonight is that online an online petition

demanding that parliament debate its own suspension it now has more than 1500000 signatures enough requiring westminster to act protest against the suspension of parliament they are planned for the weekend they are expected to be bigger than the spontaneous protests we saw yesterday. we don't get both jones and the option to any more bizarre wild interventions to prevent common exercisers democratic wrongs it is really time that's why bush chose it for a component so that we try to deny it the time to how there's just enough if peace to take that responsibility seriously i'm just now supposed to as well but he's going to talk and for more on the legal aspects of this i'm joined tonight by dr joe well grover a senior lecturer in law at middlesex university like the bergen is going to have you on the show let's let's talk about time is the clock working against parliament

now does parliament have only next week to stop its own suspension. very simply yes so let's start with the legal facts on the 31st of october 29th seen unless something else happens and that something else has to be legislation from the british parliament the u.k. will withdraw without a deal that's the no deal breaks it on the 31st of october the parliament in order to avoid the situation has to legislate to do so but with this use of what is otherwise an ordinary power there's a correctness in saying it's an ordinary power but fully using it to give 5 weeks of suspension 5 weeks with activate 5 weeks without any means of creating that legislation and avoiding any kind of no deliberate said we're facing to a very simple question of there is little or no time so there's some very important points to think about that for days that was just mentioned that the parliament

will resume it'll come back from its summer holidays summer recess and the start of a tender and it will probably program on the 10th of september if those few days are the very end of this parliamentary session any legislation which has not reached through both house of commons and has a voice and become law by that date is dead it will not continue into next session but now the important and you will it is if i could you know what. we're saying next week the parliament that's the only time it has to start the suspension but we're talking about a full week and correct me if i'm wrong but i mean the mother of all parliaments certainly could come up with legislation in a week to prevent its own suspension right. so we're going to be looking at is what's called standing order $24.00 it's bringing emergency debates bring emergency legislation now the problem and this is a problem that we face in the u.k.

for essentially almost 3 years is consensus you can absolutely bring legislation but only if you have a majority in both the house comments and that has a lloyds now what opposition are going to be facing with for those few days is potentially filibustering and that's the house of commons and house of lords just done down that clock so that legislation will die in the house of commons or the house of lords at the point that parliament is suspended there's such little time we might see one of my favorite times parliamentary ping-pong where piece of legislation is going to bat very quickly between the 2 house is but again that is very little parliamentary time to get such important legislation through well. sir if that is the case then. in your esteemed opinion is anything going to happen next we can stop this is meant to know they can stop you know do breaks in. so right now we're discussing this 3 different legal ways in

which program the suspension is stopping a part of this stopping of debate can happen the 1st is the courts the courts actually we have 3 challenges going on right now one of which is being spearheaded by jim miller but this is going to be a big constitutional question in and of itself because this power to prorogue is actually a royal power it's something that's exercised by the queen upon advice of the government upon advice of the prime minister we could have actually seen a constitutional crisis yesterday in the u.k. had the queen at refused the advice of governments now what gina miller and all the other litigants in these cases are going to try and do is challenge that advice say that that given by government to the queen was illegal that it was an unlawful use it was an abuse of a power of government we're also potentially and this is why the opposition are going we're going to try and see legislation legislation to either focus on of

voiding and no deal breaks that now in order to avoid a no deal break that it's not to say we vote against a new deal breaks that you have to vote for an alternative you need to legislation for an alternative and more than that and this is where time comes and again if you want either an agreement with the e.u. the e.u. with joint agreements you lead a qualified majority of the european council to meet and i agree with you you need legislation saying we want it well it's all agreement and the european council and the last european council meeting before brags that it's on the 17th and 18th of october now part comes back on the 14th but it's going to spend the 1st 5 days talking about the queen's each year not necessarily about it with and this is i mean is that we don't it sounds very bleak dr grogan let me ask you about this suggestion that was made today there is what's known as a humble address to the queen where parliament can pass a motion asking the queen to stop this program this provision why not do that

she gives the solver. this this comes back to the crew are essential this is why we're talking about such fundamental questions of the u.k. constitution the queen it's not political in fact the queen is an institution monarchies and his situation in the u.k. has not been political in hundreds of years the last time the queen a queen it was queen victoria stepped in and changed the prime minister it caused a crisis now you're right correct in saying that the prime minister the government are appointed by the queen do not vote and by people they're pointed by the queen and a humble address in my humble opinion will bring the queen into such an extreme political and almost a crisis situation forcing an apolitical body to make one of the most important political decisions certainly in a century dr 0 gergen senior lecturer in law at middlesex university laying out

tonight tell the clock is definitely working against westminster tonight dr we appreciate your insights thank you. for you know they really want to kick you out when they are willing to get into bed politically with people they have despised for years well that could be going through the mind of italy's far right interior minister silvio need tonight to form a political rivals the anti establishment 5 star movement and the center left democratic party well they're now attempting to join forces to create a new coalition government and to avoid a new election but what is really forcing these photos to become friends is their desire to leave my bails of being the elder of politics and out in the cold he exudes calm but just as he conti has been on a wild ride 3 weeks ago he lost his job as prime minister when italy's governing

coalition fell apart now he's been tasked with putting together a new government. the country.
