1. Episode 1
Rediscovered and shown together for the first time, old cine films are interwoven with testimony from both members of the film-makers’ families and those who lived through the war to give a first-hand account of life during conflict.
2. Episode 2
These lost films are a striking reminder of Britain in a different era. With much of the footage in colour, the past leaps to life with immediacy and reveals how world events impacted on the individual at home as well as in action.
The story of what it felt like to live in Britain during World War II, told through the eyewitness accounts and cine films of ordinary people.
