On its 80th anniversary Al Murray and James Holland speak to lead historian Dave Roberts to discuss the vital role played by the men and women in the underground bunker and operations room at Western Approaches HQ. #WA80 @WestApproaches www.liverpoolwarmuseum.co.uk We Have Ways has a membership club which includes a live version of the podcast streamed on the internet each Thursday evening.
