The film was produced by Simon Block as 'executive producer' with Nancy Bornat as factual producer and Ben Evans as development producer. The film first aired on BBC Two in January 2020.[2]

Transcription

Cast


Production

The real Calgarth Estate was demolished in the 1960s. The Lakes School near Windermere now stands on the former site of the wartime housing scheme that actually housed the children in 1945.[3][4][5][6]

Although set in the Lake District, the production was actually filmed in locations around Northern Ireland.[citation needed]

Reception

As of October 2021, the film holds a 100% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 11 reviews with an average rating of 8.5/10.[7]

Awards

In October 2020, The Windermere Children won the Best European TV Movie of the Year prize at Prix Europa. A jury member commented "This story gives hope, told with a twinkle in the eye, making the children's stories, their traumas and their losses manageable for the viewer."[8]
