The Great Escaper with Michael Caine and Glenda Jackson.

On June 5th 2014, 89-year old Bernie Jordan strolled out of the Hove care home he lived in with his wife, Rene, and set off on a 500-mile pilgrimage to France. After being denied a place on the official Royal Legion trip to commemorate the D-Day Landings, Jordan took matters into his own hands – while he let his wife know he wouldn’t be back in time for tea, his disappearance did cause a minor panic with the Suffolk police, until he was accounted for, travelling on a coach with his fellow veterans, having safely made it to Normandy.
