Eight stories of the Special Operations Executive.
Narrated by Michael Bryant 7: Florence, 11 August 1944 - partisans rise against the Germans and liberate their city. Allied armies wait outside. Links with the Allies are through a secret SOE telephone line across the historic Ponte Vecchio.
It was the first major triumph for Italian partisans. For three years Italian forces had fought alongside the Germans, but in September
1943 they effectively changed sides, and Italy itself was invaded by Germany. SOE and the Italian
Resistance combined to provide Allied Forces with a vital 'fourth arm'. And in the last weeks of the war it was the partisans who liberated Genoa, Turin, and other cities throughout the north.

Luther Vandross - his latest hit single,
I really didn't mean it, currently in the British charts - is undoubtedly one of the most exciting black singer/songwriters to emerge in the 1980s.
Four of his previous LPs have sold a million, yet until this year he had never appeared before a British audience.
This concert, recorded during a sell-out week at Wembley Arena, London, includes other hit compositions Give me the reason and If only for one night. Producer JOHN G. SMITH
A WHITE RABBIT production for BBCtv
