Mark explained: “So we took out some of the stuff and you said, ‘I’ve got this hat and I’ve got this and this.’ What was the story you then told me?”
The guest went on: “I’ve got loads of letters like over 200 letters with this same load.
“It was from a mother to her son. The mother used to work for Winston Churchill as a cook and the husband was a butler for him as well and she used to write to her son every day about the daily goings on of Winston Churchill, what he was getting up to, how he was feeling.”
Mark then said: “And in amongst all of that there are these mementos of Winston, this one here is that the lady? So a signed photo from Winston to her as his cook and then there’s letters that say, ‘Have this gift.'”
