About this listen

It's early June 1940. Though the Nazi invasion of France continues to progress at speed, Winston Churchill remains determined to keep France in the war.


Professor Richard Toye and Dr. Warren Dockter discuss whether, when Churchill said "We shall never surrender", he was actually referring to Britain and France.


And they explore Churchill's frantic efforts to sustain morale within the French government, making two dramatic flights o France in 48 hours.
