Question: On the Spot was hosted by a man who was evacuated to Northampton during what war?
Context: During World War II some 70,000 Finnish children (Finnish: "sotalapset" , the 'war children' Swedish: "krigsbarn" ) were evacuated from Finland, chiefly to Sweden, but also to Norway and Denmark.  Most were evacuated during the Continuation War (1941-1944) to ease the situation for their parents who set out to rebuild their homes in the re-conquered Karelia returning from the 1940 evacuation of Finnish Karelia.  The first surge of evacuees arrived, however, during the Winter War when the Finns had reasons to fear a humanitarian catastrophe following the expected Soviet occupation. On the Spot was a BBC National Lottery game show broadcast on BBC One from 29 July 2000 to 2 September 2000.  It was hosted by Des O'Connor. Operation New Life (23 April – 1 November 1975) was the care and processing on Guam of Vietnamese refugees evacuated from Saigon by Operation Frequent Wind in the closing days of the Vietnam War.  More than 111,000 of the evacuated 130,000 Vietnamese refugees were transported to Guam where they were housed in tent cities for a few weeks while being processed for resettlement.  The great majority of the refugees were resettled in the United States.  A few thousand were resettled in other countries or chose to return to Vietnam on the vessel "Tuong Tin". Operation Babylift was the name given to the mass evacuation of children from South Vietnam to the United States and other countries (including Australia, France, West Germany, and Canada) at the end of the Vietnam War (see also the Fall of Saigon), on April 3–26, 1975.  By the final American flight out of South Vietnam, over 10,300 infants and children had been evacuated, although the actual number has been variously reported.  Along with Operation New Life, over 110,000 refugees were evacuated from South Vietnam at the end of the Vietnam War.  Thousands of children were airlifted from Vietnam and adopted by families around the world. Northampton War Memorial, officially the Town and County War Memorial, is a First World War memorial on Wood Hill in the centre of Northampton, the county town of Northamptonshire, in central England.  Designed by architect Sir Edwin Lutyens, it is a Stone of Remembrance flanked by twin obelisks draped with painted stone flags standing in a small garden in what was once part of the churchyard of All Saints' Church. O'Connor was born in Stepney, East London to Maude ("née" Bassett) and Harry O'Connor.  His mother was Jewish and his father was from Ireland.  Des claims to be the only O'Connor who ever had a Bar Mitzvah.  He had a brother, William O'Connor, and has a sister, Patricia, who is one year his junior.  He was evacuated to Northampton during the Second World War and was briefly a professional footballer with Northampton Town. The Evacuation of Kolkanpää took place between October 18 and 27, 1708 close to Kolkanpää, in the Swedish Empire during the Great Northern War.  The Swedes under the command of Georg Lybecker were evacuating their Finnish based army consisting of up to 11,279 men back to Finland, after their failed campaign in Swedish Ingria in an attempt to recover land previously lost to Russia.  Fyodor Apraksin, the Russian commander in the area, decided to interrupt the evacuation with between 3,000 and 3,500 men.  He decided to wait until only a portion, between 600 and 800 Saxon ex-prisoners recruited into Swedish service, remained on the beaches not yet evacuated, before commencing attack with all his troops.  After several assaults the Saxons were soon overwhelmed and almost all of them were cut down or captured by the end of the battle.  The Russians had lost about 50 killed and 220 wounded.  The Swedes were also forced to slaughter about 4,000 of their horses which could not be evacuated so they would not fall into Russians hands.

She was commissioned in 1930, originally classified a light cruiser because of her thin armor but later reclassified a heavy cruiser because of her 8-inch guns.

Hilary Ann Rose (born 1935) During the 1939- 45 war she was evacuated from south London with her mother and brother.  In 1940, the year of Dunkirk, they along with many other London School children were sent to Weymouth (a curious location, given that it was opposite of the French coast).  With the defeat of France and her army, many of the soldiers were evacuated to Weymouth.  Soldiers slept on the pavements and in the requisitioned schools.
