Clarkson Black Buck documentary

[miniman]

Anyone know what this was called / whether it's around on-demand anywhere?

[droopsnoot]

Is this the one that was on Channel 4 or similar? I recall such a documentary, but I didn't see it (which is frustrating, as it sounded quite good) and I don't recall it mentioning JC. I keep scanning the EPG in case it turns up again.

I know of one Operation Black Buck documentary, it's on YouTube (this one wasn't hosted by Clarkson) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBJ99bIhAVk

From memory JC has done documentaries on Arnhem, St Nazaire and the Arctic Convoys. They're available somewhere on the internet, I couldn't tell you where off of the top of my head I'm afraid..

There was "The Falklands Most Daring Raid" but it wasn't Clarkson:

JC has done the St Nazaire (sp?) U-boat pen raid and Victoria Cross history, but I'm not sure what else.

I don't recall Jc doing anything about those raids.

He contributed to the blurb promoting the Rowland White book "Vulcan 607" - which is about the bombing raid on Port Stanley Airport.

How strange. I could have sworn Clarkson narrated one.

Thoroughly recommended book BTW

[Eric Mc]

Agreed - as are most Rowland White books.

Yes I read that on holiday a couple of years ago, very much not-put-downable.

I agree 100%, I'm sure I remember it.

Well, I'm sure Jeeves will provide the proof you need.

A quick Google doesn't reveal any links to a Jeremy Clarkson documentary on the subject.

[miniman]

He hasn't replied to my Tweet either. It's as if I'm not very important to him

Was it done as a 10 minute section (like they did on TG etc) about "British Engineering" rather than a full documentary?
