Talk’s Mike Graham is joined by former senior British military adviser Chip Chapman to discuss the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
The King has spoken of his “profound sense of gratitude” to those who fought in the D-Day invasion, as he addressed veterans during 80th anniversary commemorations in Normandy.
Veterans could be seen wiping their eyes with tissues as Charles spoke at the national commemorative event in France on Thursday.
The King and Queen also appeared emotional during the service, and the Queen wiped her eye as the memories of one D-Day veteran were read to the crowd in Ver-sur-Mer.
During his speech, Charles told the audience: “It is with the most profound sense of gratitude that we remember them and all who served at that critical time”.

Today on D Day 80th anniversary there are 200 immigrants heading to the UK by dinghies. You couldn't make it up . 80 yrs ago 133,000 allied troops landed in Normandy. Since 2018, 125,00 people have arrived on our shores illegally by rubber boat. And, it's not referred to as an invasion………..Madness!! Makes me so angry so many lives were lost all those years ago and for what……..
Still going with the 'D-Day–Liberating Europe' nonsense? We need a licence to do anything in England.
Nothing really as we have given the country away make the most of today as within 15 20 years it won’t be mentioned never mind celebrated ,our leaders will see to that like most of our culture it will be band
