Can Luke from Luke's English podcast save the world from repeating itself? And by that I mean canLuke's English podcast prevent World War 3? Well I'm not really, that's just a bit of a joke. It's because it's you know I can't make too many jokes about that because actually the background to what's happened here it's a little bit serious isn't it D-Day? Anyway I'm just you know it's my right to be to be slightly what's the word lighthearted on this day. We don't have to be all too somber ultimately that's what D-Day was all about wasn't it? They fought to me you know suffered in
Friday 6 June this year was the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy. My Grandad Dennis was one of the soldiers who landed on the beach that day. Along with thousands of other men he risked his life to fight the Nazis in the 2nd World War. Many of his fellow soldiers did not survive. Last Friday I went to Caen in Northern France to take part in the D-Day commemorations and to see my comedy hero Eddie Izzard performing stand-up in 3 languages. I recorded a podcast during my trip, and some unexpected things happened! Listen to the episode to join me on my adventure.
