Matthew Archbold over at CMR has found a jewel of a video that's well worth checking out.  Mr. Archbold writes:

More than 50 years after saving over 600 children from the Nazis, Sir Nicholas Winton is surprised on a television show when it turns out that everyone around him owed their life to the great man.

The about notes at YouTube tell the fuller story:

Sir Nicholas Winton who organised the rescue and passage to Britain of about 669 mostly Jewish Czechoslovakian children destined for the Nazi death camps before World War II in an operation known as the Czech Kindertransport. This video is the BBC Programme "That's Life" aired in 1988.
