If you are talking about the Nazi bombing campaign, The Night Blitz was the secondary stage of the battle of Britain. When the Nazi's used daytime bombing, British pilots(arguably the best in the world at the time) using their advanced hurricane and spitfire fighters(superior to the Nazi equivalent) inflicted such heavy losses on the Nazi bombers that the raids became incredibly costly. When the Nazi's switched to nightime bombing, the Hurricane and Spitfire fighters were rendered innefective and allowed the Nazi's to bomb the UK unimpeded until the Brits developed night fighters.
The overall strategic objective of both bombing campaigns was to cripple English production capability by destroying factories, and thereby open England up to invasion across the Channel.
Eventually the Nazi's stopped focusing on bombing factories and turned to indiscriminate bombing of civilian housing that was intended to break the will of the British people. That effort failed fairly spectacularly.

How can you obtain British Citizenship as you were born a British Overseas Citizen?
In general, you cannot be born a British Overseas Citizen, as this is a residual category of citizenship created for those former Citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies who were not eligible to become either a British Citizen or a British Dependent Territories Citizen after the passage of the British Nationality Act 1983. If you were born a British Dependent Territories Citizen (now call British Overseas Territories Citizen) then you are now also a British Citizen by virtue of the British Overseas Territories Act 2002. You don't need to do anything special to have British Citizenship in this case; it is automatic. However, if you are actually a British Overseas Citizen, you can either register as a British Citizen after living in the UK for 5 years and hold Indefinite Leave to Remain for at least 12 months prior to your registration application. If you are married to a British Citizen, you can apply for naturalization after living in the UK for 3 years. Finally, through the provisions of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002, a British Overseas Citizen who has no other citizenship has the right to register as a British Citizen.
What was the German bombing the British cities called?
The German air war against the British during WW II was called the the Battle of Britain. The German bombing of British cities was called The Blitz - short for Blitzkrieg (lightning strike).
