Trio

Tells the story of three war correspondents, two Englishman and an Australian, all in their 30s, whose friendship was forged during the Second World War. They became so close that their colleagues dubbed them 'The Trio', sometimes out of disgruntled rivalry. Alan Moorehead, Alexander Clifford and Christopher Buckley worked for the Express, Mail and Telegraph. Clifford and Moorehead lived together more closely than most married couples, and all three correspondents spent the war years travelling relentlessly, chasing news and writing stories, always reliant on each other's friendship and mutual trust. Frequently in the line of fire, their names became synonymous with the best war report. This work covers their relationship, what happened to each of them during the war, and how success gave way to personal tragedy.
