My best guess is that it's going to be the Manchester lad, because he's more in awe and will say more emotive things than the RAF guy - particularly apparent when he talked about fighting in a Spit, he was very overwhelmed at how they could do that and fly at the same time with so little time on the aircraft. The RAF guy, brought up in that mold, was more "well, combat's something that you're trained for" - wouldn't attract the viewers.

That was might thought anyway - probably blasted out of the water next week!

Brilliant to see the BoB veterans talking about flying though - you could still see the sense of excitement in their faces and their voices - as if it was yesterday.
