Some of the POW details on this website are from the POW returns dated September 1944. I had a look for you for the surname Asher and came up with only 4 on the list (other ranks) - details below:
Private E. L. Asher (army No. 5180705) Gloustershire Regiment - POW at Camp Stalag 344 - POW No. 15213.
Private V. L. Asher (army No. 5502479) Hampshire Regiment - POW at Camp Stalag 344 - POW No. 81516.
Private W. H. Asher (army No. 5892055) Sherwood Foresters - POW Camp Stalag 7A - POW No. 131222.
Private F. Asher (army No. 13000778) P.O. - POW Camp Stalag 20B - POW No. 7288.
Hope this helps.

Hi Louis,
thanks for that but none fit. The man I was looking for is Pte.E.Asher 5117766 1st Btn.Worcesters.
As the List originates from 1944 he probably escaped earlier. I am working on the files next week so I will look for him at The National Archives.
Best Wishes
Brian
