This beautiful remastered footage was captured by an off duty policeman on 8th May 1945 after Churchill officially declared Victory in Europe. Flags are strung between terraces during the street celebrations in Gateshead. 🇬🇧 #OTD #VEDay Music by my favourite band @swervyworld https://t.co/kgiFQoq4LD

On this day, 1945 -#VEDAY- guns fell silent, lights went on and Britons celebrated the total defeat of Nazi Germany and her allies. It was a day of celebration but also reflection, as millions had lost their lives or loved ones. And Japan remained to be defeated in the Pacific. https://t.co/JO7aK7evc5

Never again happened. Pick something the Nazi's did & Russia's doing exactly the same - including ethnic cleansing, denouncing a race of people as subhuman & encouraging violence and hatred towards them. It's not Putin you see, it's Hitler. #VEDay. https://t.co/25INbbGgX1

And when weaker men counselled peace with Herr Hitler, Churchill responded with, “We will fight them on the beaches….” The greatest Briton 🇬🇧 #VEDay https://t.co/sb3f7Hr9MV
