How We Won the War: South West

Series 1, episode 8

Jules Hudson arrives in south-west England as he continues his travels around the United Kingdom uncovering World War II stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Jules discovers how a nation of knitters kept our troops in the fight; meets the relatives of some extremely brave women - special agents sent into occupied Europe; and discovers how not even wartime rationing was enough to make people eat green coloured honey. episode 8
