Celebrations erupted across the UK upon the defeat of Germany and the end of World War Two in Europe.

A public holiday called Victory in Europe Day - or simply VE Day - was declared on 8 May 1945.

However, the day brought mixed emotions for many.

Seventy years on, six people recall what the end of the war meant to them.
