People Working in an Office, 1940. Britain during the Second World War: Churchill's speech about the threat from Nazi Germany: "The whole fury and might of the enemy must very soon be turned on us. Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this Island or lose the war. If we can stand up to him, all Europe may be free and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands. But if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, 'This was their finest hour'." From "Time To Remember - Standing Alone", 1940 ( Reel 1); documentary film about events of later months of 1940. (Colorised black and white still)
