A wartime bomber hero was today celebrating 70 years of marriage to the radio operator whose voice he fell in love with as she guided him home from a bombing mission over Germany.

Flt Lt Steve Stevens, 91, first heard Maureen's calming voice as she guided him back to RAF Scampton in Lincolnshire following the mission in 1943.

The 21-year-old Lancaster pilot was so intrigued by hearing a female's voice from the tower, he went to have a look after landing.
