Lorraine on WW2

Journalist and presenter Lorraine Kelly never got to hear about her grandfather's war – it was only after he died that she found out more about it from friends and family. As an honorary colonel in the cadets, Lorraine felt she needed to find out more and to separate the facts of WWII from the enduring fiction and find out why, after 80 years since VE Day, Brits continue to be so obsessed by it.

In this episode, Lorraine meets experts who tell her true stories of reluctant spies and breathtaking bravery; the importance of women's roles in the war; and the reality of being an evacuee. On this fascinating journey, Lorraine visits the Dad's Amy Museum to find out more about the legendary Home Guard and learns about the problem with creating a heroes vs villain narrative, bringing her fascinating findings back to base to chew the fat with Harry, Reginald, Liza, Chris and Suggs.
