    To celebrate the 100th birthday of Dame Vera Lynn, her image will be projected on to the cliffs on Monday March 20, the day she officially becomes a centenarian.

    The 350ft image of Dame Vera, who is affectionately known as The Forces' Sweetheart, will also be in celebration of the release of her new album, Vera Lynn 100.

    Dame Vera Lynn was awarded the Companion of Honour by the Queen in 2016

    Dame Vera said: "It is an unprecedented honour to have my birthday marked in such a beautiful way and I am truly thrilled by this wonderful gesture.

    "I feel so blessed to have reached this milestone and I can't think of a more meaningful way to mark the occasion."

    The record comes eight years after Dame Vera became the oldest living artist to land a UK number one album and also marks the wartime singer's 93 years in the industry as she made her stage debut at the age of seven.
    For those who are unaware given it is a young audience - Dame Vera Lynn went around the battles of World War II and entertained the troops from the battles in Europe to the British Burma campaign. Her songs from the 'White Cliffs of Dover' to 'There'll Always Be An England' were big morale boosters during the war. Her singing career spanned decades and even now her records sell well.

    Happy birthday and here's to many more.
