Summary	The British Broadcasting Corporation is a British institution, and its story during the Second World War is also our story. This was a period of remarkable voices: Churchill's speeches, de Gaulle's broadcasts from exile, Richard Dimbleby and Vera Lynn. Radio offered an incomparable tool for propaganda, while at the same time, eyewitness testimonies gave a voice to everyone, securing the BBC's reputation as a purveyor of truth. Edward Stourton explores the BBC's wartime journey, investigating archives, diaries, letters and memoirs to examine what the BBC was and what it stood for.
