While British and Argentinian Forces were fighting it out, the islanders were engaged in their own battles.

From being bombed by the RAF, held hostage by enemy soldiers to working undercover with the British Army, these islanders have their own stories about the conflict.

Gini Carlin tells Ben Coley all about her recent visit to the islands where she spoke to Tim Miller, Trudi McPhee, John Pole-Evans, Patrick Watts and Lisa Pole-Evans.

This is an original podcast from BFBS.
