Britain at War 1939-1945
Britain is at war.. and YOU can be in the midst of it. Come with us on an unforgettable journey back in time to wartime London and the blitz.. it's the experience of a lifetime! You will see it, hear it, feel it.. even breathe it as our Universal Studio-style special effects take you into the fury and danger of a blitz attack. Dame Vera Lynn couldn't believe her eyes when she visited Britain At War. She said, "I thought I was back in the war - it was unbelievable." All children should visit this nostalgic and moving experience to see what it was really like for the ordinary people 
during World War Two".
Britain At War is more than just a tourist attraction, it's a unique trip down memory lane for those who lived through those bitter-sweet days and is an educational must for all those too young to remember.
You are there inside a bombed out department store while screaming shells rain all round you. Searchlights fill up the night sky while ack-ack guns fire on the enemy aircraft overhead. Pick your way through the smouldering rubble to the main street and see the remains of the cinema, pub and people's homes. The wail of the air raid siren mingles with the noise and confusion of the rescuers, while firefighters tackle the raging blaze and carry a girl to safety. You may be able to escape past the burst water main but wait.. you have to pass an unexploded bomb which could go off at any second!
from Churchill, Chamberlain, Roosevelt, Ed Murrow, Hitler and Lord Haw Haw.
