Eighty years since The Blitz terrorised the British public, we find ourselves back in confusing, scary and dangerous times. In this week's Chops, Hannah chats to chief curator of Historic Royal Palaces and TV historian extraordinaire Lucy Worsley about her new documentary Blitz Spirit. They talk about people working on the frontline of the Home Front, what history can teach us about these strange times we live in now and whether our current experiences can help us understand the past a bit better. Tuck in!
