“When we stopped at the traffic lights you could hear the shrapnel pinging in the roads. Amongst those out in the roads looking at the display that night was Mr H. G. Wells, whom I’d been seeing. Mr Wells, at the age of 76, has the same attributes as the younger Londoners —you can’t upset him. He was through the blitz at its worst, and he’s curious to see how the barrage progresses. He lives in Regent’s Park, close to the heart of London. No air raid will budge him.” —, J. L. Hodson, in a 8.8. C. overseas broadcast.
