Our Finest Hour

Special Edition CD & DVD Presentation Commemorating The 75th Anniversary Of The Battle Of Britain, And Featuring Bonus Dvd 'The Story Of The Spitfire!' In the summer of 1940, Britain stood alone against the Nazi menace, threatened by invasion yet galvanised anew by the bulldog spirit of Winston Churchill. The events of those few months - the miraculous evacuation from the beaches of Dunkirk, the courage of 'the few' as the RAF took on the Luftwaffe in the skies above southern England, the beginning of Hitler's aerial blitz on Britain's cities - not only saved the nation but changed the whole course of the Second World War. Now, 75 years later, we recall those epic times through the newsreels, broadcasts and music of 1940 and beyond - from the sounds of Spitfires and sirens to Churchill himself in full rhetorical flow, from Vera Lynn longing for Bluebirds over the White Cliffs of Dover to the chin-up comedy songs of Doris Hare, Florence Desmond, Max Miller and more. Hear reports of the raging fires as the bombers struck, listen spellbound to a live commentary of a dogfight over the Channel, and be moved by Queen Elizabeth's message to the children of the empire - all in a unique audio presentation that offers an amazing window on life in Britain during one of history's great turning points. Chosen from the finest archive material available, Our Finest Hour will fascinate and inspire in equal measure
