Well, I thought it was a nice programme, actually. Well thought-out and not too 'gimmicky', with really beautiful photography.

And a brilliant selection of 'talking heads' - a great collection of surviving veterans, all of whom seemed to be on good form. Familiar faces such as Tom Neil and Bob Doe, but one or two other real 'aces' who usually keep a low profile such as Allan Wright ( ex 92 Squadron ) and 'Grumpy' Unwin of 19.

And a soundtrack by Elgar, not Spinal Tap ! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Looking forward to part II....
