Sky 1 HD goes inside RAF Brize Norton
Sky 1 HD goes inside RAF Brize Norton
This autumn, Sky 1 HD will premiere observational documentary series Inside RAF Brize Norton. The seven-part series will embed viewers in the intense, engaging world of one of the biggest and busiest Air Force bases on the planet, which supports all UK military operations around the globe.
Is this the documentary that dai4films made? If so then I hope they have better content than the cringe-worthy taster.

Some great stuff there.....professionals working hard to deliver their bit.
Movements WO, Chef, PJI....great stuff! No nonsense, to the point. Thank you.
To some others....Tubby Sqn Ldr with poorly canned sound bites......you make the RAF look like the other services feel you are. Take him off the series.....
I have experienced your service......and do you know what, was hugely content with the blood sweat and tears you shed. Thank you.
(And yes, to those philistines that say its not the same blood and sweat that is shed in theatre.......you are right.....it's all relative!)

As for "blood sweat and tears" I agree with you entirely, each is cog in the wheel. Look forward to seeing the series - from what I saw there I could not help but think how yonger and more professional looking today's RAF appears to be. Good on you guys.

Do you know what, from the other services point of view...not that bad.
Tubby SO2 - agreed, but the PJI and 216 co were also a bit mincey. Maybe the temptation to perform for the camera was too much?
Stn Cdr - VG but I guess he would be.
If Joe Public sees a series/prorgamme as good as the trailer might indicate then maybe some of the damage done by 'Airbase at War - The Kandahar Post Run' may be repaired.

'Man up or ship out' though?
In light of LFCs recent edict about banning cries of 'man up!' from the Kop or for fear of upsetting Mary Beard, I hope that somebody suitably 'right on' from within the fluffy bowels of the MoD media empire is sprinting to the post production edit suite as we speak. Oh, the inhumanity.
