Battle of Britain 75th Anniversary

A flypast involving about 40 Spitfires and Hurricanes is set to take place to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain. Prince Harry will join veterans to see the fleet of Battle of Britain aircraft take to the air - the most in any one place since World War Two.

A service is being held at London's St Paul's Cathedral, attended by David Cameron and Labour's new leader Jeremy Corbyn.

The battle, in the summer of 1940, was a pivotal moment in UK history. A range of events have already been staged over the past few months to mark the aerial battle, which raged between July and October 1940 as Germany attempted to destroy the fighting capacity of the RAF.
