Roald Dahl and Pat had five children together, but life wasn’t all plain- sailing and in November 1962 the A-list pair suffered every parent s ultimate nightmare; the loss of their seven-year-old daughter, Olivia.

He wrote: “Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. One morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything.

‘Are you feeling all right?’ I asked her. ‘I feel all sleepy’, she said.

In an hour, she was unconscious. In 12 hours she was dead.”
