Thread: Spitfire documentary.

  1. #1

    Default Spitfire documentary.

    At 21.00 on Thursday 26th September BBC4 will be showing the documentary 'Spitfire' - the story of the plane including interviews with veterans. It will be repeated at 02.00 on Friday 27th September. I believe that it has been shown before and that it is available on dvd.

    I am hoping that it will be available on iplayer afterwards.

    I think I may have the DVD if it is the same one Dave. This is a four box set narrated by Tony Hurst, and directed by Stephen Saunders.
    With all the upheaval in the household during the last few months I have not had time to watch it yet.

    The documentary only lasts 1 hour 30 minutes, Rob.

    Any likelyhood of it being available on something other than BBC or iPlayer?

    The documentary is the one produced and directed by Anthony Palmer and David Fairhead.

    It is already available on dvd. Its cover looks like this

    Thanks for the nod David, watched this this afternoon.
    The Spits looked their best against the spectacular backdrop of the East Sussex coast in the sunshine !
