Verona and Thomas

The Wedding Detectives

Available for over a year

Wedding albums capture the happiest day of a couple’s life. But what happens when those pictures are lost? 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 story of two photos and their owner, a writer named Paul. He asks the Detectives to track down more photographs from his Jamaican parents, Verona and Thomas’s East End wedding in 1956. Verona burned her wedding album leaving Paul with just the two snaps. Using those pictures as clues, Charlotte and Cole try and track down the photographer and any relatives unknown to Paul who might still have their own albums. When the best man is identified as a pioneering West Indian club owner with links to the Krays, the story takes a different turn. A TBI Media production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4
