This special edition reports on an important heritage battle of the Second World War.
In spring 1942, the Nazis declared war on Britain's historic cities, decreeing that any building marked with three stars in the popular Baedeker guide books was earmarked for destruction by bombing.
Dan Cruickshank tells the story of how Britain's treasured buildings came into the firing line, and how our ancient towns still bear the scars today.
