Following the British Open Golf championship final playoff in 1963 between Bob Charles and Phil Rodgers, the BBC decided to replay the match for BBC TV. Henry Longhurst, a well known golf commentator was making a lengthy speech when in the distance came the beautiful sound of the Airspeed Ambassador which had just departed Blackpool on the Autair service to Luton. The sound got louder and louder until eventually Henry Longhurst gave up, waited for the noise to pass, and then had to record the whole piece again.
