Tonight, BBC2 ( West/Wales ) - Close Up West has a 30 minute programme about Yeovilton and it's SHARs.

The trailer has film of the JSF ( I think it's a JSF, it doesn't have rotor blades ), so there might be some tempting footage in there.

As long as they don't go on about the Navy's new compressor wash technique it mught be worth a look.

Then again probably not.

Yep. Call me picky, but 20 or so of the 30 minutes were about the rols of the Harriers in the Falklands, and not directly connected to Yeovilton at all.

Never mind - there were some consolation piccies of Wokkas down south to make up for it.
