I saw these videos recently on YouTube about the Blitz period.
It's a BBC series called Blitz Street presented and narrated by Sir Tony Robinson (who I recognized his voice as the character of Baldrick of Blackadder)

Also some other videos on some British cities attacked by the Luftwaffe during WW2
As a USA citizen the only related thing that I remember is a deep nuclear bomb shelter built in my Dad and Mom's house back in 1962 during the Cuban missile crisis
It was built of very thick reinforced concrete and had a submarine hatch as a door.
We also had a manually cranked air filtration unit and some air cylinders along with all the other stuff like dosimeters,iodine pills,water food other stuff.
I never saw these videos before so they were interesting to me.

Re: Some related videos on YouTube
Thanks for the info. I recently watched his "ROMANS" series and found it to be very interesting and entertaining, he really has a talent for this sort of thing.
