Short interview conducted by Vicky MaCdonald during the ‘Longest Yarn’ with visitors that shared personal memories and family stories in reaction to the exhibition. The Longest Yarn exhibition was a month-long tribute to the War Effort behind the D-Day Landings of 1944 - displaying a 3D tapestry depicting D-Day in 80 panels – was held at the Holy Trinity Church, Llandudno (October 2–27, 2024).

In this interview, Dennis Pointon shares memories of his uncle, George Harold Eardley (1912–1991), a Victoria Cross (VC) recipient. Eardley was distant from the family, but stories reveal his bravery in WWII, including an account of him neutralizing enemy machine-gun posts. Although he rarely discussed his wartime experiences, a statue in Colton honors him, though knowledge of his deeds has faded. Eardley’s VC medal was last known to be in Prestatyn, though its current location is uncertain.
