"News of The War" – and a rather good Monty impression, matched with an awfully bad rendition of the Commander-in-Chief. But in better news, the Germans are on the run now - it's the end of 1943 - and things are looking up in Italy. Ish. We're not quite there yet. This week, it's all doctrine in #NewsoftheWar, and the impressions being made of our 'Our Men' over there. Plus lots more news of the war.. Letters to the Editor. Sport. Dictator of the Week. And - crucially - all the #newsofthewar that really mattered in September 1943 ... it's ALL GOING ON in the #NewsoftheWar ...Andy Aitcheson and Merryn Walters dig into the newspapers, chasing the stories that didn’t make it into the history books. Expect dry wit, sapper grit, deep dives, and the detours into what lurks in the photos, gossip, scandal, news, and letters to the editor during the Second World War.
