	Clementine Churchill, Baroness Spencer-Churchill - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Clementine Ogilvy Spencer-Churchill, Baroness Spencer-Churchill, GBE CStJ (April 1, 1885 – December 12, 1977) (née Clementine Ogilvy Hozier) was the wife of Sir Winston Churchill.
		Clementine was born in London to The Lady Blanche Henrietta Hozier (1852–1925), second wife of Sir Henry Montague Hozier.
		Clementine's biographer, Joan Hardwick, has surmised (due in part to Sir Henry Hozier's reputed sterility) that all Lady Blanche's "Hozier" children were actually fathered by her sister's husband, Algernon Bertram Freeman-Mitford (1837–1916, better known as a grandfather of the infamous Mitford sisters of the 1920s).

		Churchill returned to Oldham and used the publicity he had gained to stand again for the seat in the 1900 general election when he was narrowly elected for the seat.
		Churchill was a staunch advocate of foreign intervention, declaring that Bolshevism must be "strangled in its cradle." He secured from a divided and loosely organized Cabinet an intensification and prolongation of the British involvement beyond the wishes of any major group in Parliament or the nation--and in the face of the bitter hostility of labour.
		Churchill College, a constituent college of the University of Cambridge, was founded in 1960 as the national and commonwealth memorial to Winston Churchill.

		Churchill introduced several reforms to the prison system, including the provision of lecturers and concerts for prisoners and the setting up of special after-care associations to help convicts after they had served their sentence.
		Churchill continued to be criticized for meddling in military matters and tended to take too much notice of the views of his friends such as Frederick Lindemann rather than his military commanders.

	Clementine Churchill - The Churchill Centre
		All that aside, it is a tremendous, inspiring story, a love story first and foremost, for the wonderful relationship between Sir Winston and Clementine must be labeled thus; yet it is also a professional, well-researched, competent history, with Clemmie's faults not expunged from the record, though they were overwhelmingly exceeded by her virtues.
		Lady Churchill was, of course, first and foremost, the perfect mate and foil for her complex genius-husband: "Clementine had no hobbies, such as gardening - that great solace and refuge for countless Englishwomen.
		Churchill, the recurrent grappling with what WSC called the Black Dog - depression - following the Dardanelles, Plug Street, the loss of office in 1929, the bittersweet Thirties, the 1945 election, the 1955 retirement, are all measured here, and one gets the impression that each took its toll on Clementine.

	Walter Sickert (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The accident was reported in the press, and as a result the painter Walter Sickert, who had known Clementine and her family at the turn of the century in Dieppe, marched up to No. 11 [Downing Street] and enquired about his friend of long ago.
		Clementine was delighted to see him again and introduced him to Winston: the two men got on very well, and Sickert came both to Chartwell and Downing Street; the long painting sessions they had together strongly influenced Winston's style and technique.
		The impact of Sickert's mentoring of Churchill is shown in plate 48 in the book, in a reproduction of Tea-time at Chartwell, painted around 1928 from a photograph taken on 29 August 1927.

	Churchill . Churchill The Man \| PBS
		At the end of his life, Churchill felt a failure, in spite of everything that he had achieved, because of the decline of the British Empire and the beginning of the Cold War.
		In his latter years especially, Churchill had a stormy relationship with his son, Randolph, and their meetings would, more often than not, end in arguments.
		In some ways this was a repeat of Churchill’s own relationship with his father, who was often distant and extremely critical of his son.

		Seeing Churchill's adoration of his wife (Vanessa Redgrave) or the family woes troubling Ralph Wigram (Linus Roache) is all very emotionally dramatic, but it uses precious screen time that might have been better devoted to highlighting the political situation abroad, or indeed the monarchy's situation at home.
		To play Winston Churchill well is an almost impossible task for an actor because he is such a charismatic and instantly recognisable figure.As well as that he is still so loved and revered by our Nation it is almost sacrilege to try.
		Albert Finney is superbly cast as Churchill, so much in fact, that when his youngest daughter (now in her late 70's) saw the preview of 'The Gathering Storm' last year before its general release, she was moved to tears at the end of the film, and kept repeating 'That's my papa, that's my papa'

	DVD Verdict Review - The Gathering Storm
		Although Winston Churchill's years out of power in the 1930s are often said to be little known or seldom dramatized, the reverse is actually true.
		From 1928 to 1931, Winston Churchill falls from being Chancellor of the Exchequer in the British Conservative government to being completely out of office after the Conservatives were first defeated in an election and then not being asked to take a role in the 1931 National Government.
		Winston Churchill was many things: a soldier, a politician, an accomplished speaker and writer, a devoted husband, a stubborn and arrogant man, a bricklayer and painter, physically disorganized but mentally acute, and virtually all of them are miraculously telescoped into this stunning 96-minute portrait.

		Churchill was setting a tone of unity for his administration, getting on with business, telling both his own people and his enemies that henceforth Britain was united.
		Up to Chapter 11, all the hagiographic references to Churchill are immediately followed, in the same paragraphs, by the lessons which the ‘business leader’ should draw from them.
		But Chapters 12 (Find your Clementine) and 13 (Follow your Canvas) are free of this, with only a summary of the ‘Churchillian principles’ which should be remembered after reading the chapters—though Chapter 14 (Winning the War) resumes the edifying Churchill/businessman pattern.

		Churchill before listening to this tape will never forget her once they have heard it.
		The tape opens with letters written at the beginning of Winston and Clementine's acquaintance in 1908 and continues through their engagement, marriage, births of children, personal tragedy, and public triumph.
		Few of us can imagine Britain's wartime embodiment of the bulldog spirit sending "best love and kisses" from the bench of the House of Commons, or choosing brightly coloured wooden animals for his baby daughter, but his devotion to his beloved Clemmie and their Puppy-Kittens is undeniable.

		Churchill once even threw a dish of spinach at her husband.
		Although Clementine was 10 years younger than Winston, she lacked his stamina and often retreated to a health spa or vacation spot.

		For Churchill during those years, the House of Commons was possibly everything from a lion's den or a circus to Mt. Everest but it certainly wasn't a safe harbor.
