Youngsters talk to their war hero relatives about VE Day

8 May 2020, 10:02

These are the lovely calls when youngsters spoke to their war hero relatives about what they remember about VE Day.

The UK is celebrating the 75th anniversary of VE Day, the day that German forces unconditionally surrendered in Europe.

With VE Day commemorations being very different to those planned, Nick Ferrari wanted to bring some of the war heroes together with their young relatives to talk about that great day.

The relatives we spoke to are:

Tamzin Gilkes and great-grandfather Louis Godwin

Lucy Handisides and grandfather Corporal Jack Quinn

Anthony Franks-Buckley and great-uncle John Dennett
