Watch as GB News reporter Sophie Reaper gets stuck into the VE (Victory in Europe) Day celebrations at a dance class in Llangollen, Wales.

Britons are urged "glam up, do your hair and don't say no" to fully immerse themselves in the festivities.

The milestone commemorates Victory in Europe Day, when the Second World War ended for tens of millions of people on 8 May 1945.

In London, the Royal Family will be at the heart of commemorations with a tea party at Buckingham Palace for veterans and their families.

King Charles and Queen Camilla will host those who have served in the armed forces.

A military procession along The Mall and a flypast are also planned.

This anniversary holds particular significance as it may represent the last major opportunity to mark VE Day with people who were actually there.
