Every Wednesday on the Hard Shoulder, we bring you The Last Post - where we hear about the life of someone who has recently died but you have probably never heard of...
Today, John Kelleher told us all about Australian seafarer Peter Warner, who rescued six shipwrecked boys from Tonga, who had survived for eighteen months on a desert island in the South Pacific.
