'''On This Day''' is the name of the [[BBC]]'s news archive website. It contains an online [[digital library]] of news stories reported by the BBC on [[World War II]] and world events from the 1950s to 2005. There are entries for every day of the year, many including [[video]] or [[Sound|audio]] reports which can be viewed online. The stories are arranged by years, by themes, by witness accounts and by the correspondents reporting the stories. There is also a front page which updates daily with past events from that date. Further to this on this very day last year Pippy met his Marchie bum and one year on is still the happiest luckiest man in the world. He loves her with all of his heart.
