Back in Bradford now with the Silver Beast, it was motoring I remember from the 80s, window down, steady 50mph. Thanks for the car and the opportunity to view some of your collection. @ListerLawrence

If you've never listened to this narration by Laurence Olivier at the beginning of Episode 26 of A World at War, strap yourself in.

A huge credit to @mark_hayward9, @WYFRS and @LincsFireRescue for their incredible fundraising efforts over the last 30 hours. A 75-mile continuous walk, from Sincil Bank to Valley Parade, all in aid of the #56for56. Witnessing their work first hand has been special. #bcafc

No one seemed to object when Churchill turned up at the White House in his war-fighting gear.
