Assuming they remain on the airways, they'll climb out of Bristol heading to Exmore. Then south towards Exeter city, turning over Berry Head (Torbay) before crossing the channel straight to Guernsey 
Thanks very much Moose.
(Just checked with ATC here)
Looking at the sea area activity, you'll almost certainly head out over Lyme Bay, as the route will need to be well to the West of Lulworth as the Army are firing all day. The rest of the areas you'll cross are just booked out to RNAS Yeovilton for rotary wing flying - up to 3000ft, so you'll be well above that. Interestingly, later on in the day, Lyme Bay is booked out to the RAF Falcons parachute display team, then the Red Arrows.

What sort of altitude do they fly at out of interest? It's an ATR72.
AUR643 today was handed from Cardiff Radar to London Control at FL150 (~15,000ft) and wasn't climbed any further. I believe the level they had filed was 150. Its route was EXM N864 BHD (what Moose said, basically).Edited by RDE on Monday 20th July 23:13
