Rent Manchester at War (2005)

The story of Manchester's war has never been told in this way before. We have unearthed 100s of images from the archives of the Manchester Evening News and 100s of feet of old movie film of the city as it stood firm under the onslaught of German attack. The stories and pictures give a fascinating insight into life in wartime Manchester - from the preparations for war, to air raid attacks on the city. It is the extraordinary story of how the "ordinary" lives of people in Manchester were changed for ever.
