Our names are so mundane that we barely notice them. Yet each contains countless stories of tradition and belonging - be that a legacy of colonialism or persecution, the desire to fit in, or the complex cultural inheritance from one's parents. In What's in a Name?, Sheela Banerjee unravels the personal histories of friends and family through their names. And while tracing their heritage across centuries and continents - from west London to British India, and from 1960s Jamaica to pre-Revolutionary Russia - Sheela also tells the story of twentieth-century immigration to the UK.

Story1
Raised in a lush suburb of 1920s Paris, Noor Inayat Khan was an introspective musician and writer, dedicated to her family and to her father’s spiritual values of harmony, beauty, and tolerance. She did not seem destined for wartime heroism. Yet, faced with the evils of Nazi violence and the German occupation of France, Noor joined the British Special Operations Executive and trained in espionage, sabotage, and reconnaissance. For crucial months of the war, Noor was the only wireless operator in France sending critical information to London.

24 führende Persönlichkeiten des NS-Apparats sollen für den deutschen Angriffskrieg und Massenmord zur Rechenschaft gezogen werden. Das Feature von Jochanan Shelliem dokumentiert nicht nur präzise die Prozessabläufe, sondern gewährt durch Zeitzeugen wie Erika Mann, Gefängnisarzt Pflücker und Chefdolmetscher Sonnenfeldt - vielfach im O-Ton - einen profunden Einblick hinter die Kulissen. Berichte über intime Verhörszenen, das körperliche und seelische Befinden der Angeklagten sowie ihre Reaktionen auf die Urteilsverkündung erzeugen ein Bild von bedrückender Intensität.
