Thursday 22nd September, 21.00 on BBC2.
Hosted by journalist and flying enthusiast John Sergeant, 'The Spitfire: Britain's Flying Past' celebrates the 75th anniversary of the Spitfire.
From the blurb:
One such Spitfire, MH434 was born at the legendary Castle Bromwich factory and during its valiant service, carried out over 79 sorties across Europe. John charts the lifespan of MH434 from her factory birth to her retirement and uses this nostalgia flight as a backdrop to sharing the extraordinary stories of ordinary people who feel they owe their lives to the Spitfire.
