Good guess and on the right lines with the war thing, but try a compatriot instead

Correct! Full explanation:

Holy = St (Saint)
2nd Sept 1939 is the eve of war
War sounds like Waugh courtesy of the homophone indicator 'broadcast'

Your turn to set a clue should you wish Helen

Dean Winstanley?

Christopher = Dean

Victory = Win

With Hilda = Stanley (Ogden)

You put jump on the outside and put the odd letters from the other bit in the middle!

Rather stumped!

Been through Mike Baldwins sons, Danny, Mark & Adam...but their father is of course Mike which doesn't befit a surname. Michael does, but the only cricketer with that surname I can find is Con Michael.

Maybe it's nothing to do with Corrie and the Baldwin in question is Alec, Stanley or someone else?

You are right with the Corrie link and you have mentioned the correct first name.

Thanks for the hint. Could be Danny Briggs then as Briggs is Mike Baldwin's real surname.
