Britain has declared war on Japan, a summary of Churchill's statement. Charles Collingwood comments on the British statements. The Netherlands has declared war against Japan.

Switch to London at 9:38 with more news and summaries of Churchill's speech by John MacVane and Charles Collingwood. "This was not a good example of Churchill's oratory" (5 minutes). Back to the Breakfast Club at 9:45. + As you can see this episode was originally broadcast on the morning of Monday the 8th of December 1941, which was of course, the day after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. After about 11 minutes the show is interrupted with a special news bulletin announcing that England has declared war on Japan. From a historical point of view this is a very interesting episode of The Breakfast Club. Don McNeill still manages to introduce some guests and there is plenty of music but not surprisingly News Bulletins are quite frequent. |
