Thought it was an enjoyable programme, especially the concentration on some of the individual pilots who have been in the display world for a long time and who contribute enormously to the public's enjoyment and appreciation of the history and professionalism of the RAF.
The script was crap and the commentator was awful.
The highlight for me was the technical bit when the sharp point of the country's military sword couldn't be unsheathed because the canopy stuck. Consternation! High profile display doomed. The technicians try everything to no avail. Up comes an erk, gives it a thump and lo, it opens! Priceless!
