They hoped the liberation of France would lead to more Allied victories and the defeat of Germany.

Explanation

V-E Day, May 8, 1945, marked Germany’s surrender and the end of World War II in Europe. British citizens celebrated the end of the fighting in Europe and looked forward to the return of prisoners of war. The other choices describe earlier wartime events or hopes, not reactions to V-E Day.
