Last scheme worn by this aircraft (G-AOVS) was the fictitious "Redair" for the 1980 BBC drama "Buccaneer" which basically closely copied the story of Redcoat flying cargo charters from the UK to Africa. I believe the ill-fated G-BRAC acquired similar titles. The fictional country "Ximbali" and its airport was actually Cranfield.
