To mark #VEDay75 our Historian Tony Comer tells an untold tale from our archives.
For the first time he reveals the final messages intercepted by GCHQ from a German communications network in the days leading up to #VEDay ⬇️
With the #VEDay75 celebrations today we thought we'd share this silent film of the London Victory Celebrations on 8th June 1946, commemorating the final British and Allied victory in the Second World War https://t.co/5XvblvNgWM #VEDay#Film#HD#WW2#Parade#Celebrations#London
#MomentsofBeauty in #Glasgow: Laurieston House on Shields Road was the home of Dr Robert Pollok who had a very interesting life. It’s one of my favourite villas in #Pollokshields and I thought today a day worth sharing it’s fascinating story...🤔🥰!
Last few days on @BBCiPlayer. Can someone tell @captaintommoore ?? They might have been in the same battalion during WW2. @_richardmadden@carinabirrell Harry Birrell Presents Films of Love and War, Harry Birrell Presents Films of Love and War: https://t.co/2CTc6OnHyN
Can your business help step up or start production of ventilators, face/surgical masks, surgical gowns, hand sanitiser, swabs-testing kit or visors for @NHSScotland?

🎥 ‼️ URGENT APPEAL ‼️
The technicians at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Glasgow are asking for donations of 1/2mm thick acetate sheets to make face visors to protect staff working through the #coronavirus pandemic.
It would help hospitals across the country.
Can you help?
I am an emergency physician. My increased exposure means that I have chosen to isolate from my family, to keep them safe. This is how I see my daughters (pictured with their cousins, with whom they’re staying).
If I can do this, you can stay home.

My grandfather would be over the moon that his life's work on camera is uplifting a few people at this challenging time. Our film @birrellthemovie is on @BBCiPlayer now and 9pm on @BBCFOUR tomorrow 📺 @MattPinder2000 @HopscotchUK @_richardmadden
Following Tarrant's appearance on BBC News on Tuesday offering our sleeper buses to the NHS we are struggling to find the correct person/dept to contact. Please can you help us by sharing so it gets to the right person. #NHSEngland, #NHSuk, #coronavirusoutbreak@coronavirusuk
Do me a favour: if you know someone who has gone out socialising tonight, text them and tell them that I would willingly take them to intensive care in 8 days' time but there might not be a ventilator left by then, so it's up to them, really.
STAY INDOORS. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
