In anticipation of the long-awaited news, millions across the country and throughout the Commonwealth took to the streets to celebrate. Victory in Europe Day became a national holiday. Colourful bunting and flags were hung. Bonfires and fireworks were lit. People danced and sang. The pubs were full of revellers.
Now, 80 years on, we will come together again as a nation through a series of national and local events to pay tribute to the Second World War generation - serving at home and abroad - who fought bravely for the peace that endures today.
