Never was there a tree more Instagram friendly, standing as it did along Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland. Sycamore Gap was a giant of the North-East, a favourite spot for photographs, marriage proposals and the like.

It was the plane that pilots 'put on' rather than flew; the beautiful beast that left even the Germans waxing lyrical.

Eighty years ago, the Allied fight against Nazi tyranny came to an end. At 3pm on May 8, 1945, Winston Churchill told the nation in his radio broadcast that it was 'your hour' and 'your victory'. As news of the end of the Second World War in Europe spread, so did the country-wide rejoicing. London was swamped by hundreds of thousands of people celebrating the end of five years of toil and sacrifice - even if the war against Japan was still ongoing.
