Not one comment about this week's episode! I wonder why?

Could it have been because it may have lost it's way? It was a great BoB history lesson, lots of good film, most of which we have seen before but very well put together. But precious little about Dave Mallon learning the skills it took to fly the Spitfire, a few seconds here and a few seconds there. The formation flying was, well, ordinary. Where were the aeros Pete Kynsey referred to, and had written on the briefing blackboard?

Have to say that this week was disappointing. The veterans told their story very well but none of it really got to grips with purpose of the prog.

Great shots of Dover, and the south east though.........
