  • Part two of the documentary about the Clydebank Blitz.
    What the luftwaffe failed to do on those fateful nights 70 years ago some eejit succeeded. The temements at the end of this clip were demolished just recently.
    My family, including a very young Maggie lived in those very temements in Dalmuir, firstly Kitchener Street and then Dumbarton Road. I have fond memories of Christmas Day and taking my first doll's pram out onto Dumbarton Road even though there was at least two foot of snow on the pavement outside our tenement.

    My Mum - now 91 - lived in Radnor Street. She'll never forget standing in the shelter with her Mum, Dad and big brother. And not being scared and only because my Gran and Granpa who must have been terrified kept very calm, held my Mum and Uncle close and showed no fear.

      Georgie Csanadi Sorry for the late reply.. only reason I'm alive is because my Grannie refused to shelter in the Dance Hall due to her very religious beliefs !! That's why my Dad..8 at the time survived ! It's a crazy world !
