A series of movies telling the stories of some of those caught up in the devastating events of World War Two.
? Dunkirk
? Bombers and the Bombed
? Evacuees
? The Secret Army
? D-Day
The war was fought on many fronts, from dog-fights in the skies over Kent to the barricades of resistance in Warsaw.
Stories of secret missions, terrifying battles, survival and rescue are here, but are only a part of the history of those years.
Bombs also fell on families at home, and the courage of many children was tested by the experience of evacuation across Europe.
