...black balled from groups," "You're wicked an devil because you're blackhearted."

This day in the life and death of three British paratroopers and their German prisoner is full of grime, gore, suspense and pretension.

Last June, Madrid's Prado Museum decided to have The Family of Charles IV cleaned and rebacked with a fresh canvas. When the first layer of grime was removed the Prado's assistant director, Xavier de Salas, made a startling discovery.
