"Father recovers from virus in time for son's birthday"


The Red Arrows soared through London's skies this morning to mark the 75th anniversary VE Day.

The spectacular flypast saw the famous red jets speed just 100 feet above Westminster and Buckingham Palace.

Meanwhile, RAF Typhoons roared over Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast to lift the nation's spirits.

It marks 75 years since Allied victory over Nazi Germany on May 8 1945.

In a touching message for the "greatest generation" World War Two veterans, Boris Johnson said "our gratitude will be eternal".

The PM, who has written to veterans, said: "75 years on, we are a free people because of everything they did."
