Note: In some cases issue start and end, does not mean that the story appeared in every issue in between due to short breaks or sporadic appearances, these have been marked with an asterisk * (these are still being updated).

What was the name of a Tenko-themed story with a Japanese prison camp in Suzy, please? Also, how did it end and does anyone have the start and end dates please? I remember the penultimate episode had a mass breakout after the prisoners realised the commandant was having them dig the pit that was to be their mass grave, and they set the camp on fire. But I did not catch the final episode (rats).
Thanks for any help.
Was it Kids of Camp Courage? (Had the same artist as When Vera Vanished). I looked at in the library, but don’t remember how it ended.
Kids of Camp Courage is probably the title, yes. I did wonder about that.
‘The Kids Of Camp Courage’ ran in SUZY 134 (Mar. 30 1985) – 145 (Jun. 15 1985). In the final instalment Jenny Thomas realises that arrangements are being made by their Japanese prison guards to kill all the children they had captured. By the middle of 1945 conditions in the prison camp are dreadful, and the boys and girls are near starvation. The girls start a fire, which the wind is blowing towards the camp, so taking advantage of the resulting commotion, the older children carry the younger ones and make their escape, and are sensible enough to leave a false trail for the Japanese to follow. After crossing a rope bridge they then loosen the posts at one side, just enough to persuade the chasing soldiers that they were getting away so quickly that they wouldn’t have had time to sabotage the bridge. When the Japanese get there, that is exactly what they assume. However, due to the combined weight of the soldiers, the bridge gives way, but Captain Sakko and five others manage to cross before the bridge collapses. The deus ex machina is led by Major Harris of the Royal Marines, who informs Sakko as he arrests him that the war is already over, and the Japanese High Command has already surrendered to the Allies.
Thank you for the information, Derek.
Is The House on Witch Hill linked to its text? When I click on it, no link works.
Why is Twin Trouble listed in the Suzy stories when it is a Judy story?
They are two different stories. The one in JUDY 1306 (Jan 19 1985) -1315 (March 23 1985) is about Lucy Linton, a promising athlete who was paralysed in an accident for which she unjustly blames her twin sister, Lynne. It happened when Lucy was trying to prove that she could ride her bike home faster than her sister, who warned her to slow down. She didn’t, and going round a blind corner, she crashed into a tractor coming the other way.
The one in SUZY 146 (June 22 1985) – 158 (September 14 1985), which replaced The Kids Of Camp Courage, tells the story of next-door neighbours Val Price and Jenny Brown, who were good friends until Val’s father won money on a Premium Bond. Mr Price buys a pony for Val from Mrs Hornsby whereas Jenny only gets one on loan. The two horses are aware of each other’s presence and kick their doors down to get to each other. It appears that Jenny’s Frosty and Val’s Snowflake are twins, and seem to be able to communicate telepathically with each other. It soon transpires that they are pining for each other., but the girls are falling out, and blaming each other for the problems their horses appear to have. The girls take their ponies to a Pony Club Camp so they can be together but the organisers separate them. In the night though, the ponies chew through their ropes and return to their original home. Mrs Hornsby decides to make Frosty’s loan to Jenny a permanent one.
I’ve fixed those links now. Both the Judy and Suzy Twin Trouble story are from 1985, so must have got confused with link. Mandy also had a story with that name so quite a popular title!
They should be separate, but the link was leading to the Judy story. But it must have been sorted now.
