Ceremonies have been held to mark the 75th anniversary of one of the most significant dates in the modern era of the western world.

Tuesday, 6th June 1944, saw what is widely considered to be the largest combined land, air and seaborne invasion in history.

Codenamed Operation Neptune and often referred to as D-Day, it was the Allied invasion of Normandy in Operation Overlord during World War II, unleashed with the words "let's go".

More than 4-thousand Allied troops died during the operation to liberate France.

Dollin Mercer looks back at the day itself, and events which have commemorated it this week.

On the 24th of May, reformed abortion law came into effect in the Isle of Man. This means that a woman on the Island can now have a pregnancy terminated up to 14 weeks by request and up to 24 weeks in cases of foetal anomalies, serious social reasons and where the life of the mother is at risk or if the child would die or suffer seriously shortly after birth.

We follow the journey of this bill, now law, from its humble beginnings through protests, amendments and petitions to last week, when the law came into effect.
