On this week’s episode, The West’s travel editor Stephen Scourfield revisits one of Normandy’s D-Day beaches for its 80th anniversary month.

During the show, Stephen reflects on the complex and brazen operation that unfolded on D-Day, the bravery of the soldiers involved in the mission and how it was a turning point in WWII.

We also hear about Normandy’s viking history and William the Conqueror’s legacy.
