How we source these
Public holidays are taken from official government sources for each country and cover national holidays only. The United States, Canada and Australia all have significant state and provincial holidays that are not shown, and India’s system of state, optional and restricted holidays means only three days are observed nationwide. Where a government has not yet published a year, we say so rather than guess. Always check the official source for the country concerned rather than relying on this alone.
September 8th through history
Seventy years, two hundred and fourteen days
Elizabeth II died at Balmoral on the afternoon of September 8th 2022, aged ninety-six. The announcement came at half past six, by which time her family had been flying north all day. She had reigned for seventy years and 214 days, longer than any British monarch before her, and two days earlier had received her fifteenth prime minister, standing, in a tartan skirt, with a diary appointment written down for the following week.
The Football League began on September 8th 1888, when ten of its twelve founder clubs played their first fixtures. Everton beat Accrington at Anfield in front of something like ten thousand people, Anfield then being Everton’s ground and Liverpool Football Club not yet existing. Preston North End went on to win the title without losing a match.
The first V-2 rocket to reach Britain fell on Staveley Road, Chiswick, on September 8th 1944. It arrived faster than sound, so there was no warning and no siren, and for two months the government preferred to call the explosions faulty gas mains.
Peter Sellers, the actor and comedian best remembered for the Pink Panther films, was born in Southsea on September 8th 1925. The country singer Patsy Cline was born in 1932 and the singer Pink in 1979.
Born on September 8th: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Peter Sellers and Patsy Cline — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Virgo — an Earth sign ruled by Mercury, symbolised by the Maiden.
Birthstone
Sapphire for September.
Birth flower
Aster (primary), also Morning Glory — most commonly cited sources agree on aster as the main September flower.
None of this is settled fact in the way the history above is — zodiac dates, birthstones and birth flowers are conventions rather than laws, and different sources hedge them slightly differently. The birthstone is the most standardised of the three (set by the trade in 1912 and revised since); the birth flower is the least, resting on Victorian tradition rather than any governing body.
