A WW2 Army base in Wales became a safe haven for refugees fleeing Ugandan dictator Idi Amin in the 1970s and they were shown such kindness by Welsh people, one displaced grandmother wanted to adopt one local.
The detritus of the camp still remians in Tonfanau, Gwynedd, and the story features in the ITV documentary, Vanished Wales. Back in October 1972, more than 1,300 men, women and children arrived at the Welsh camp after Amin threatened the Asian population in Uganda that if they didn't leave there'd be consequences.
Chandrika Joshi was one of those people and was aged 14 at the time. She appears on the show to talk about her experiences, both fleeing Uganda and coming to Wales.
