Listened to James May being interviewed today on Radio 5 Live circa 1530 local. He reckoned RAF was there doing hot n high training for Afghanistan. Admitted that there were ’several’ takes to get that shot. He also reckons that TG has some of the best video and audio guys in the business.

Besides, can you imagine how much the BBC would have to cough up to hire two C130s (wargoers too) to deploy overseas for a bit of filming?
Having seen the list of BBC managers' salaries in the press I would have thought that sum would be regarded as petty cash by this overfed organisation.

Having lived in Ridgecrest some years ago I was so busy trying to spot what was in the background that I missed the action! Luckily I'd recorded it. Great sequence. The desert looked a lot greener than I remembered, though.
