VE DAY 80

@veday80

A voice that still stirs the heart of a nation.

At 95, Colin Thackery—Korean War veteran, Royal Variety performer, and national treasure—shared a moving rendition live on @GBNews ahead of the VE Day 80 celebrations.

From winning a singing competition at 89 to performing for the Queen, Colin continues to inspire with his passion, pride, and powerful voice.

As host Martin said, “That was glorious!” — and we couldn’t agree more. A true highlight for tomorrow’s historic commemoration
