Communities along the Yorkshire Coast are marking the 80th anniversary of VE Day, on Saturday, with special events including a concert in Scarborough and a vintage fair and evening celebration in East Ayton.
On Saturday at the Hub, at the Summit, on St Nicholas Street, Scarborough, there are narrated war-time stories from 80 years ago.
Scarborough Sea Cadets will read aloud thrilling adventures of lucky escapes and celebrations, together with narrator Nick Taylor.

There's also a full programme of VE Day events with the Jubilee Fair in East Ayton.
People are encouraged to dress in 1940s clothing.
Jubilee committee member Chris Bailey says there's entertainment all the way through to the evening:
