That would be Red Arrows - A Quiver of Silver shown on BBC1 in 1990. It does indeed include Lee Jones describing the early days of The Yellowjacks, amongst other things.

The Team was led by Tim Miller and many famous faces are in the programme. Brian Hoskins was the Stn Cdr at Akrotiri during the winter work-up.

Lee Jones' description of the Gnat fuse 13 saga is a classic!

Fortunately my VHS copy has survived and is now saved to DVD. No, I won't be making any other copies
