Rarity from ww2 for you all.
Here it is, after 6 years of engagement in the biggest war ever know to mankind, the first on-air announcement to the residents of Blighty that the one-testicled kraut has carked it.
Actually, it's fascinating to observe the restraint of the announcer. This was 60 years ago - and back then people working for bbc radio had to enunciate everything in received pronunciation, ie the "queens english".
The effect it has on the modern-day listener is extremely jarring - it sounds like the most important announcement of the century is being delivered with all the gusto of a weather report.
Two world wars and one world cup, doo da, doo da.
10/10
