And so, farewell then Dame Vera Lynn, aged 103 - the last living embodiment of that "Wartime Spirit" that binds this plucky nation together in times of crisis.
Indeed, her "anthem" became somewhat of a morale-booster throughout this current coronavirus lockdown...
If there's not a state funeral, there'll be Hell to pay!
RIP, Dame Vera Margaret Lynn CH DBE OStJ (née Welch; 20th March 1917 – 18th June 2020)
