In this episode we find out what happened next to the characters in Roland and Lee's love letters as the series comes to an end.

'When you look at your parents or grandparents it's hard to imagine them as young lovers full of adventure' Ami Bouhassane who in this series shares the love letters from her grandmother, held in the Lee Miller's Archives. Sitting and reading them they conjure up an extraoridinary tale and extra depths to the famous photographer, Lee Miller.

This series explores the 300 pages of love letters written between the iconic photographer Lee Miller and the Surrealist artist Roland Penrose during their courtship. Starting just a few days after they first met in June 1937 at a fancy dress party in Paris, the letters continue for 2 years charting their love, their friends such as Man Ray, Picasso, Leonora Carrington, Max Ernst, Nusch and Paul Eluard, their adventures, the build up of world war II, some scandals and a lot of fun.
