Stage Parades - Our Finest Hour (2010)

In remembrance of all those in all countries who perished in World War Two. Our tribute to them is taken from the new project 'Light At The End Of The Tunnel'. We hope and pray despite the current conflicts within the world, the future brings more peaceful times. Thanks to the many friends who sent me photos for this video, in particular Debbie Hopkins-Davies and Betty Tynan.

Steve Smith - How I always remember Peter's Dad on this day, his dedication to the Royal British Legion in every year selling poppies at East Finchley Station. Always sold more if it clashed with the Lord Mayor's Show. RIP Bill x

I found this video quite emotional. It was indeed 'our finest hour' Made with great feeling. Brought a little lump to my throat and a tear to my eye. Really well done!

@albainbridge1 Al, You know your comment made me play this again after a couple of months and must admit it's quite good !

This is a well put together collection of photos to go with the calming and lovely music. A very big 'Well Done' to you both. I enjoyed it very much.

Oh Steve and Peter. This too is your finest hour for this is the most tender and deeply moving music. It gives honour to the principles of man's desire for peace and freedom. With our Beloved Sir Winston Churchill and those who gave their lives shall never be forgotten. You have done an incredible and most honourable thing here. This will always remain my favorite. Thank You. Love, Maricet

Bless you Steve and Peter and those dear ones in your lives for whom I send my deep respect.

Steve,this is a very interesting and inspiring piece. My father went into the army when he was 17 in 1939.He ended up in bomb disposal...lots of stories. A cousin was a signaller. They only contacted each other last year and exchanged by email many strange and amusing stories. He was the first soldier into Belson and only came across the camp by accident.
