Don't miss it!

It's on the BBC HD channel at 10.30. Having read the book I'm more excited about this than I have been about any TV programme in months. Should be good. There are lots of interview with Geoffrey Wellum about as a result of this too, have a google to find them.

There is a longer and better thread on the "Planes" forum.

Erm i've got to ask why it's in the "planes" forum?

Anyhoo, just watched it on iPlayer and thought it was excellent, my Father is currently writing his memoirs from his time in the RAF (flew Vampires and Hunters along with a lot of other stuff) will post it up when he lets me wink

It's included because it's to do with 'planes and stuff. There is also other general Battle of Britain discussions going on over there.

Only got round to watching this last night, very moving story I thought, especially Mack and the transfer papers at the end.
