Guglielmo Biason's video: Churchill s secret bunker London stories

Today's London lockdown is an extreme measure, taken to deal with unprecedented circumstances. The last time the city experienced something worst, was probably 80 years ago, during the Battle of England We are taking advantage of this time at home to edit some old footage we took while visiting the London bunkers in recent years. Not the best footage, we also lost some audio tracks, but still something we though is worth sharing in these difficult times In 1940, the British Government, led by Churchill, was forced to a sort of underground lockdown to be able to operate despite the constant air strikes from the Nazis. And after difficult times, they did and the bunkers were closed in 1945 We visited what are today called the Churchill War Rooms, near Whitehall. Now a museum managed by the Imperial War Museum. But we also had a chance to visit the Dollis Hill bunker, called The Paddock or Churchill secret bunker, which has been abandoned and now can be visited only twice a year in the same way as it was left in 1945 —————————————— DO YOU WANT TO VISIT?
