I'll have to download the programme about Hull.  I think most of my ancestors who lived in Hull had died before WWII but I know my g.uncle still lived there until his death, as I met him when I was young, although I don't think it was in Hull.

I was not aware of this series but to answer at least part of the original question, there certainly is a bomb map of Birmingham. A late friend of mine had a copy and I can only assume that he got it from the Library of Birmingham.
