British war-time era singer Dame Vera Lynn is being remembered with two special shows this coming weekend.

Beloved local entertainer Vicki Lee will be performing the songs of Dame Vera at two shows across Christchurch and Greymouth, which are being billed as a nostalgic two-hour journey of wartime memories concluding with a good ol' fashion singalong.

Susan Fleet was the personal assistant for Dame Vera and was involved with much of the legendary singer's career.

Susan joins the show to share some of her insight into the legacy & life of the 'Forces Sweetheart'.
