Battle of Britain Broadcaster

Charles Gardner, Radio Pioneer and WWII Pilot

Robert Gardner

Before the Second World War the fledgling BBC employed just two radio news reporters: Richard Dimbleby and Charles Gardner. Best-known for a live description of a Battle of Britain dogfight, Gardner joined the RAF himself in 1940 and later reported on Mountbatten’s campaign from Burma. This biography assesses his influence on the role of reporter and war correspondent in the broadcast era.
