The My UK competition, which was run by Blue Peter and Downing Street, invited viewers to turn their views of life in the 21st century into a film idea.
Read the transcript for the film below:
Janet:
This is my UK. My UK is the place my grandpa fought for back in the 1940s.
Grandpa:
There’s a picture of me. That’s taken actually in Germany.
Janet:
Which one are you?
Grandpa:
I’m the one in the middle. I was the gunner operator in that tank. I was 18.
Janet:
Were you scared when you first started in the army?
Grandpa:
Of course I was. You wouldn’t be human if you weren’t scared. But the secret is to be scared
and yet still do your duty.
Janet:
When he was young, my grandpa had no choice but to be a soldier, but because of him
I can achieve my dreams.

Here you are, Janet.

Thank you, Grandpa. Bye.

Finished. What do you think, Grandpa?

Ooh, very good. For Henry VIII. I’m Henry VIII, I am
