Description
[Original Audio Recordings of Speeches Read by Sir Winston Churchill]
Churchill ''mobilized the English language and sent it into battle'' (John F. Kennedy)
''Words are the only things that last forever.'' (Winston Churchill)
In this collection of digitally remastered recordings from the BBC archive we hear firsthand how, in 1940, Chamberlain resigned, Hitler invaded the Low Countries, and Winston Churchill was summoned to the greatest challenge of his long political career. Using digitally-remastered BBC archive recordings, you can hear his legendary use of language - in context - with a linking script by Mark Jones (writer, Churchill Remembered). Hear how Churchill's speeches raised the country's morale, and demonstrated Britain's determination to fight on to eventual victory. His speeches from 1939 to 1954 include:
Sinking of the Graf Spee
Battle of the Atlantic
Fall of Singapore
Victory in North Africa
Review of the War
Tribute to George VI
Speeches selected & abridged by Mark Jones / Produced by Sarah Kilgarriff / Links written by Mark Jones / Narrated by Stephen Thorne / This recording contains original speeches by Winston Churchill sourced by the BBC archives / Digital remastering by Paul Gilham. NOTE: Whilst every attempt has been made to clean up and remaster the speeches using the latest technology, the sound quality may at times reflect the age and off-air nature of certain source material.
