Description
So many historic events made the 1940s a decade to remember. Here, in over 10 hours of programming, you can remember history in motion.
Experience the drama and intensity of a world at war. The Battle of Britain, Chamberlain's handing over to Churchill, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour and the Luftwaffe sieges on London are all remembered in original British Pathe footage.
Relive the triumph of V-E day, the end of World War II and Churchill's legendary 'V for Victory' sign but also the travesty of Europe's devastated cities.
Enjoy footage of the post war years. Bob Hope presenting the Oscars, Laurel and Hardy's arrival for the Royal Command show, Princess Elizabeth marrying Prince Philiip and the first bananas arriving in Britain since the beginning of the war.
Towards the end of the decade, see the Iron Curtain being lifted, Prince Charles being christened and lacy stockings becoming the greatest fashion trend.
Enjoy these and many more prominent events of the 40s.
History in motion - commemorative and informative - the perfect gift for yourself or for someone close to you.
