Winston Churchill Inspects the Troops at Bickleigh Castle 1940s Weekend
WINSTON Churchill, military re-enactments and a trip to 1940s Britain welcomed visitors to Bickleigh Castle last weekend.
The castle hosted a two day event of nostalgia on Saturday May 20 and 21. Military re-enactors included ‘First Wave’ (US troops at D-Day), the smart Somerset Light Infantry, and a posse of period policemen, augmented by Jeeps, trucks, motorcycles, and a selection of civilian classics, one, a 1934 Jowett, being commandeered as transport for ‘Mr Winston Churchill’ (actor Derek Herbert).
Rosalie Sanders of Blundell’s gave a song repertoire on both days, while ‘Mr Churchill’ regaled audiences with the famous wartime speeches.
Sandy Sparkle of Paignton led a 1940s party on Saturday evening, in which people danced into the night.
Music over the weekend was provided by the BRNC Volunteer Band and the Exeter Pipes & Drums, the latter being more fortunate with the weather, for Sunday, especially, proved an enjoyable and lovely day for all concerned, the surprise highlight being a fly-past by classic military aircraft.
The event ended with a short but moving Commemorative Service led by the Pipes & Drums, in which tribute was paid to the example and sacrifices of the 160,000 personnel in the Normandy landings.
A collection by the Royal British Legion took place both days.
John Vaughan, the Castle’s curator said: “I would like to thank all concerned for helping to create a memorable event.
“We already have plans for a WWI centennial event next year.”

Südengland Rundreise mit GTA-SKY-WAYS
Vielfältig präsentieren sich die südenglischen Grafschaften. In den Kathedralenstädten Exeter, Wells und Salisbury zeugen prächtige Monumente von einer Blüte der europäischen Kultur, die in ihrer Monumentalität nur von den einzigartigen Steinkreisen in Avebury und Stonehenge übertroffen werden. Hafenstädte wie Plymouth waren schon immer Englands Tor zur Welt während die Quellen von Bath schon von den alten Römern und Britanniens Aristokratie zur Erholung geschätzt wurden. Reizvolle, wildromantische und zugleich mystische Landschaften wie die Cotswolds, das Dartmoor oder die spektakulären Küsten von Cornwall und Devon bilden darüber hinaus jenen Rahmen, in dem sich Jane Austen, Agatha Christie und Rosamunde Pilcher Inspiration für Weltliteratur holten. Natürlich dürfen bei dieser 2-Punkt-Standortreise auch ein Besuch des großartigen Blenheim Palace, Geburtsort von Winston Churchill, des wohl schönsten Gartens Englands, den Lost Gardens, und von Prideaux Place, einem wahren Kleinod, nicht fehlen.

CRHnews - 'Cockleshell Hero' Raymond Quick DSM HMS Tuna
COCKLESHELL HERO FADES AWAY IN HOSPITAL AGED 95
Adapted from an obituary posted by Sophie Braybrooke on the RHS Community Website
One of our oldest old boys, Raymond Quick, who attended Royal Hospital School, Greenwich, and transferred to Holbrook in 1933, sadly passed away in September aged 95 years.
Mr Quick was a key member of the famous Cockleshell Heroes wartime mission in 1942 and as submarine HMS Tuna's Royal Navy telegraphist he told the world of its successful conclusion.
His message: Operation Frankton completed. 2100/7.
Devon-born Mr Quick, of Gloucester Avenue, Moulsham Lodge, died at Broomfield Hospital Chelmsford on September 20, 2011, after being admitted with an infection shortly after giving his final interview.
His carer, Mrs Iris Walker, said: Ray was brave and heroic to the very end. I miss him terribly already.
Mr Quick was the last surviving submariner to take part in Operation Frankton, a mission which Sir Winston Churchill claimed had shortened the Second World War by six months.
Ten commandos who became known as the Cockleshell Heroes were launched from his T-Class submarine in five tiny 'cockle' canoes to attach limpet mines on shipping in Bordeaux harbour.
Admiral Louis Mountbatten described it as the most courageous and imaginative of all the raids ever carried out by the Armed Forces and they crippled the enemy.
However, two of the combined services team, made up of army soldiers and Royal Marines - George Sheard and David Moffatt - perished from hypothermia after their canoe capsized.
Six were executed by the Germans - John MacKinnon, Samuel Wallace, Albert Laver, Robert Ewart, James Conway and William Mills.
The surviving pair of Herbert Hasler and Bill Sparks made it home three months later via Gibraltar.
Their bravery was at long last commemorated earlier this year with a permanent memorial in Bordeaux which also reflects the role of HMS Tuna and her men, as well as three French resistance fighters -- but Mr Quick was not well enough to attend the unveiling ceremony in March.
His wartime role as chief petty officer telegraphist won him the Distinguished Service Medal, but, not for Operation Frankton.
It was for his 'outstanding coolness, cheerfulness and skill whilst serving on HMS Tuna in five arduous patrols and a brilliant and successful attack on a German U-boat on April 7, 1943.'
Mr Quick, who suffered from dementia, was lucid while talking about his submarine exploits, having kept the stories to himself in the post-war years, when the Essex Chronicle featured his story in March.(2011)
Mrs Walker said: Raymond hoped to go to France for the ceremony, but though he had sight, hearing and mobility challenges, his heart was there.
Mr Quick settled in Chelmsford after the war and worked for Marconi before retiring with his late wife, Eileen, to Paignton.
Mrs Walker added: Our spouses both died at the same time and due to his infirmities I became Raymond's carer, but I never tired of hearing his war stories.
Mr Quick thoroughly detested the 1954 movie The Cockleshell Heroes, starring Trevor Howard, Victor Maddern and Christopher Lee.
The modest hero said he was scared out of his wits most of the time, especially when his submarine was forced to spend 36 hours at the bottom of the Mediterranean, off Cyprus, avoiding Nazi hunters.
He expressed amazement that he survived the war, having sailed in a succession of five subs, all of which were lost after he was transferred, concluding hostilities safely on board HMS Tuna.
The full details of what happened to all those involved in Operation Frankton, which succeeded in damaging five enemy ships, including a U-boat support vessel, are grippingly recorded in the latest book 'Cockleshell Heroes The Final Witness' by Torquay-based historian Quentin Rees.
His comprehensive researches delve into every aspect of the clandestine raid and its aftermath and throws fresh light on the fate of those who dared.

'That Summer' Movie : Torquay 1979
Filmed in Torquay in 1979, this is the story of a 21-year-old Steve Brodie (Ray Winstone) who arrives in the Devon seaside resort of Torquay after leaving borstal. He befriends the son of a butcher from London named Jimmy and they start dating two girls from Northern England. Steve works in a pub, Jimmy hires pedalboats on the beach and the girls work as chambermaids in a hotel. Three loutish Scottish youths have some confrontations with Steve and then frame him for a robbery at a chemist shop. This leads to his arrest just before the start of a 'round the bay' swimming race in which he is due to compete against one of them.
If you're an old Torquinian, you'll smile at Ray working in The Pickwick, fighting in the Model Village and buying a pint in The 400 club (1:02)
