It's 5.00 O'clock on the 7th September. Just 70 years ago the Luftwaffe bomber streams were over East London.

LONDON (Sept. 6) -- Rare color footage of the bomb damage inflicted on London during World War II has surfaced just in time for 70th anniversary of the Blitz.
The dramatic footage shows the destruction of several London landmarks, including the flagship John Lewis store on Oxford Street.
The film was released Monday by Westminster Council to mark the start of the devastating German bombing campaign that began Sept. 7, 1940, and continued until May 1941.
