High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Radio Londres (French: Radio London) was a radio broadcast from 1940 to 1944 from the BBC in London to Nazi occupied France. It was entirely in French and was operated by Free French Forces who had escaped the German occupation. It served not only to counter the Nazi propaganda broadcasts of Radio Paris and Radio Vichy, but also to appeal to the French to rise up and to send coded messages to the French Resistance.
