Dès septembre 1939, plus d'un million d'enfants des grandes villes britanniques sont évacués à la campagne, avec une valise, un masque à gaz et une étiquette à leur nom. De septembre 1940 à mai 1941, l'aviation allemande bombarde Londres presque chaque nuit : c'est le Blitz. Les Londoniens se réfugient dans des abris ou dans le métro. Pour raconter ce que quelqu'un a dit : le discours indirect (She said that... / He told me that...), avec un temps « reculé » (will → would, is → was).
