When Harold Haig was 10 years old, a man in a suit came to visit. "He
said to me, 'Would you like to go to this wonderful place called
Australia where the sun shines all day every day and you pick oranges
off the trees, live in a little white cottage by the sea and ride a
horse to school?'" remembers Haig, who is 73 but looks younger, with
Pete Postlethwaite cheekbones and flowing white hair. "While I was
letting this sink in, he added, 'Well, you know you're an orphan, your
parents are dead, you've got no family, you might as well go.'"
