Much better programme this evening from Lord Ashcroft ...
My comment above was "relative" to the previous two programmes. SCAFITE hit's the preverbal nail on the head. In a Country, sadly, where our children and most of their parents know little or couldn't care less about our immediate past, which helped secure the freedoms they now enjoy ... any opportunity to educate and inform is a blessing in my book. Yes ... most of us as the cognoscenti would expect more ... but we have the wit to research and understand more of the detail ... which I suspect would be a further turn-off for Joe Public.

I won't be purchasing Ashcroft's book that accompanies the series ... but I'd be very happy if only a few of Joe Public are minded to do so following the series if only to keep the memory of such brave men, like W/O Jackson, alive.

NutLoose ...

Thanks for the information ... Let's hope the memorial remains cared for now the RAF has departed

Best ...

Coff.
