Includes two programs: Poppies are Red, Cornflowers are Blue and The Artwork of Remembrance. Poppies are Red, Cornflowers are Blue: It's not only about how exactly the Poppy became the icon of remembrance in Britain - though that is a fascinating story, almost never told in full - this is also a deeper research of why it rapidly became such a solid and enduring icon, to the main point where some dread it is becoming over-exploited. Plus we look at France's somewhat less ubiquitous bloom of remembrance, the blue cornflower... The Artwork of Remembrance: Symbol Whitaker talks about some of the greater unusual techniques artists remembered the Great Conflict, through the works of your painter, an architect, a film-maker, a sculptor and a poet.
