Where do we start?!
I find diaries are good for everyday detail. I would suggest
"The War and Uncle Walter", see:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/War-Uncle-Walte ... cle+walterand
"The Real Dad's Army" (not just about the Home Guard) see:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Real-Dads-A ... 0670919802and (as a dramatized diary)
"Housewife, 49", see:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Housewife-49-DV ... B000M5KVDYI would also suggest wartime films such as:
"Millions Like Us", "Went the Day Well" and several others.
Also Ministry of Information films etc, to be found in the Imperial War Museum archive, such as:
http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/ ... 1060006248and Pathe News films, such as:

Best wishes, Owen.
