Operation Mincemeat: Wife tells husband's story

Alison Cholmondeley says a new WWII film about her husband pays him a good tribute.

Operation Mincemeat tells the story of a British plot to fool Nazi Germany, using a corpse and false papers.

Charles Cholmondeley came up with the idea to convince the Germans the British were planning to invade Greece and Sardinia, rather than Sicily.

Alison talks to Claire Carter about her husband and the film.
