In which you will learn:

  • What happened at the London Zoo in World War II
  • Which buildings survived the Blitz unscathed
  • A lot more than Jazzy has ever known about the Blitz

At the end of the episode, we have placed a recording of 'London Can Take It'. Produced by the British Government in October 1940, 'London Can Take It' is narrated by American journalist Quentin Reynolds and pays tribute to London and its people during the Blitz on the capital. You can find this copy on the National Archives UK Youtube page: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLgfSDtHFt8
