From September 1940 to May 1941 London was the target of a brutal bombing campaign. We tell the story of the eight months of misery and resistance. From the spirit of London’s East End, to a special team that saved St Pauls Cathedral. From the evacuated children, to the families sleeping on the underground. Hear about the firefighters, bomb squads, the home guard and the unique role of London’s women.
