Through personal stories of remarkable veterans, we explore the significance of VE Day, the emotions surrounding the victory and the challenges that continued even after the celebrations finished. By sharing the accounts of those who lived through it, this episode brings the history of VE Day to life, reminding us that behind every flag waved and every bell rung were real people, enduring great sacrifices. Their stories remind us of the resilience and strength that defined a generation. As we remember, let’s ensure we listen, honour and never forget.
