Wedding albums capture the happiest day of a couple’s life. But what happens when those pictures are lost, discarded or even thrown away? Wedding album collector Charlotte Sibtain and journalist Cole Moreton uncover the stories behind the photographs and try to reunite them with the family. This time, the Wedding Detectives have a remarkable wedding album from 1952 that belonged to London couple George and Kathleen Sewell. There are enough clues in the album for the Wedding Detectives to discover that George was a pioneering film maker in the 1930s, inspired by his time in the trenches in the First World War. Film critic Mark Kermode assesses his work. George Sewell’s film The Gaiety of Nations can be viewed at: http://www.eafa.org.uk/catalogue/2681 Produced by Jonathan Mayo A TBI Media production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4
