Here is one here that some might find interesting in ward park bangor northern Ireland.

It is a documentary about an artillery veteran's search for anti-aircraft guns of the type used on Malta in WWII, his success in finding them & their installation on Malta as a memorial to those who served in the Royal Artillery both British & Maltese.
I have a copy, and I have sat on the guns at the barracks, when we watched my wifes nephew do his passing out parade. clapclap
( I got told off for playing with them)
If you visit the island, there is still a lot of reminders of the siege to see, even if they have replaced a lot of the original cannons with fibreglass ones and got rid of the buses.
