With each passing day the surviving ranks of the Second World War generation dwindle. At 105, Group Captain John “Paddy” Hemingway was the last pilot to fly against the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain. May the Lucky Irishman rest in peace.

And so time marches on and is ever relentless.

We’re in the planning phase of a new series on 1945 and the end of the Second World War.

Ambitious? Yes.

Dear listener, what three events of that year stand out most?
