Katherine Jenkins and Dame Vera Lynn’s ‘We’ll Meet Again’ reaches number one on iTunes charts (ITV)

The ‘We’ll Meet Again’ duet between Katherine Jenkins and Dame Vera Lynn has reached number one on iTunes’ top songs.

The pair joined forces to re-release Dame Lynn’s famous wartime song in support of NHS workers and their families.

The song had seen a recent surge in popularity after the Queen made reference to it in her historic address to the nation on April 5.

All of the money raised from sales of the duet are going to NHS Charities Together.
