Summary
A social history documentary series featuring stories of human interest from 1940, exploring the courage and resilience of the human spirit during the Battle for Britain. People from all over the globe who joined the Royal Air Force explain what it was like to live through this fundamental conflict. The RAF had won the battle for aerial supremacy by day but by night the outcome was far from certain. We look at the German development of night blitzes and argue that this was still a part of the Battle for Britain, which continued until May 1941. With CGI effects, we'll recall the terror of a Night Blitz raid (7th September 1940) where 1,200 German aircraft bombed the City and hear about civilians' experiences
