The industry of Glasgow and the Clyde, conscious of its
contribution to the war effort, expected to be a target of Hitleršs
bombers, but few predicted the ferocity of attack in the raids of
March, April and May 1941. During those fateful days, whole
families were wiped out, entire streets disappeared and vast areas
were flattened by wave after wave of Luftwaffe planes dropping high
explosive and incendiary bombs. Illustrated by archive film and
photographs, this is the story of life under the bombs as recalled
by the people who fought on the home front and lived to tell the
tale. Presented by Ronald Fairfax Running time: 52 minutes
