Katrice Lee: A Father's Story

The BBC Sounds series looks at Richard Lee's four decades in the news

Two-year-old Katrice Lee vanished near a British Army base in Germany in 1981.

Her father, Richard Lee, has spent four decades trying to find out what happened to his little girl.

As part of a BBC Sounds series, launched on International Missing Children's Day, Mr Lee - from Hartlepool - describes how he has coped with being in the headlines while trying to get help from the authorities, both in the UK and Germany.

In recording Katrice Lee: A Father's Story, he describes how he "bared his soul" in the hope it might help his family find some answers.
