Full description for Churchill's Greatest Speeches: No. 2
In this collection of digitally remastered recordings from the BBC archive we hear first-hand how, in 1940, Chamberlain resigned, Hitler invaded the Low Countries, and Winston Churchill was summoned to the greatest challenge of his long political career. Using digitally-remastered BBC archive recordings, you can hear his legendary use of language - in context - with a linking script by Mark Jones (writer, Churchill Remembered). His speeches from 1939 to 1954 include: "Sinking of the Graf Spee"; "Battle of the Atlantic"; "Fall of Singapore"; "Victory in North Africa"; "Review of the war"; and, "Tribute to George VI". You can hear how Churchill's speeches raised the country's morale, and demonstrated Britain's determination to fight on to eventual victory. 'Words are the only things that last forever' - Winston Churchill.
