It's had a few screenings over here already. I tried to watch one of them but I found it a bit irrelevant and tedious. There aren't even any women in it.

I wouldn't stay in especially to watch it, guys.

Ian :lol:

Well that does it then...I won't be watching. :lol: Of course if PBS puts on a show titled 'Women and Their Bouncing Bombs' I'll definitely be tuning in. ;)

Eric,

Being of a similar mental age to your signature, is that a talk for giving or receiving advice, and can I listen in...... :worried:

Thanks for that Ian, I thought it barely worth mentioning .
Next time I'll just skip it.

By some strange coincidence.. The Dam Busters was on ITV4 this afternoon/evening :-O Bless em'.. ITV4 broadcast a warning that historical bits might be offensive to some viewers.. and we ALL know what they are ;) Don't get me wrong.. I dislike the word concerned as much as the next bloke. My only gripe is massaging history in order for it to be politically correct now and that done, it becomes fiction, not fact ;)

There's an episode of Ice Pilots which shows it from the Buffalo Airways side.

I'm addicted to that programme!
