Christmas 41

Memories of Christmas some seventy years ago in this “nostalgic medley of radio” presented by Christopher Andrew.

This was the period of Lord Haw-Haw, Churchill, De Gaulle, The Brains Trust, Vera Lynn (pictured above), blackouts and rationing. 

The programme was broadcast on Radio 4 on Thursday 24 December 1981.
 


Also from 1941 is this Crown Film Unit Christmas Under Fire directed by Harry Watt.
