Celebrate or commemorate ?
I think we were celebrating Winston Churchill's speech of the 20th August 1940, a celebration which included a fly-past by aircraft from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight. On 15th September we will commemorate the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain. With a bit of luck there will be another fly-past and the BBC can redeem itself with quality coverage----or is that wishful thinking?
