Darkest Hour - Joy Hunter on life as a typist at Churchill War Rooms

Joy Hunter was just 18 years old when she began working at Churchill War Rooms and joined the team of people working long hours in the secret underground rooms from which Winston Churchill and his team charted the course of the Second World War.
While the work was intense, Joy remembers Churchill as being a 'man of great emotions' - and recalls a memorable evening during which she watched a film with him.
Visit Churchill War Rooms to explore what life would have been like for the men and women who worked there during the war: www.iwm.org.uk/...
