Join me in Bristol for a moving look at how the city marked the 80th anniversary of VE Day. From 1940s songs performed by the brilliant D-Day Dollies in Clifton, to a ride on a vintage green Bristol bus with a passionate local driver, this documentary captures the music, stories, and spirit of the day. We also visit the city centre where Duncan, the guide behind the St Nicholas Market and Bristol Air Raid Shelter Tour, shares his love of local history. Back in Clifton, the weekend ends with a heartfelt performance from a community choir — a reminder of the resilience, remembrance, and togetherness that Victory in Europe Day represents. 🪖 Want to go deeper into Bristol’s wartime past?
