There was quite a hulaballoo in Lancashire at Christmas 1944 -- there was a V1 Flying Bomb (Doodle Bug) attack on Manchester!

A formation of specially configured HE-111 Heinkel bombers flying over the North Sea launched a number of V1 Flying Bombs (Doodle Bugs) aimed at Manchester on Christmas eve.

(see later posting covering this in great detail)
