Former world champion boxer, Richie Woodhall, investigates the untold story of the Cadbury sons during World War One.

Egbert (‘Bertie’) and Laurence Cadbury were the sons of the chocolate making family.

Bertie saw action during World War One as a pilot stationed at the Royal Navy’s Air Station in Great Yarmouth.

He wrote letters to his brother Laurence, a conscientious objector who volunteered in the ambulance service rather than fighting on the front lines.

Richie also meets Justin Cadbury, Bertie’s grandson, to learn more about his grandfather’s life through the letters which he wrote during the war.

At the Shuttleworth Collection he talks to expert Bob Richardson about what it was like to be a pilot during WW1.
