Joe, that was on the ABC here last year sometime. I only saw a few of the episodes, but it seemed quite good.

Joe, I think the series gave a good insight into the process, in those days, of turning a young bloke into a Spitfire pilot. The four? pilots are mixed bag of experience with a bright spark getting the nod. :-)

Joe, it predates the Bomber Crew programme by about a year. It has already screened in NZ on Sky but I don't know if real TV plan to screen it.
The best part is the interviews with genuine Battle of Britain pilots, including our own Bill Wells very briefly. Pete Brothers featured a fair bit in it.

This show featured recently on History Channel on SKY (my new home has SKY). Very interesting, and well made show. The poor guy didn't look too comfortable with the formation flying though!
