On This Day... WWII's First Naval Battle of Narvik

75 years ago today saw the Second World War's first naval Battle of Narvik.
 
It was a violent confrontation between British and German ships at the end of a Fjord, with both sides losing two of their destroyers.
 
Forces TV's Paula Middlehurst caught up with author Ron Cope, who has now written a book on the battle called "Attack at Dawn', to be published later this month, and asked him what inspired him to do so.
