VJ Day 80

VJ Day 80: We Were There, BBC2

“VJ Day 80: We Were There was not just a fascinating and moving documentary, but a profoundly important document of a time rapidly slipping from active memory. One imagines many more hours of interviews were filmed than the brief 60 minutes we had here. Hopefully every minute has been catalogued.”
Chris Bennion, The Telegraph

“A viewer always comes away from these documentaries with a heavy heart but also a great sense of reverence for such courage and the indomitability of the human spirit.”
Carol Midgley, The Times
