For Polly and interested others !

As polly mentioned my television appearances in the thread regarding 'The Mill', yes, I have been in a few things, one was a documetary regarding the Mosquito night Fighters of RAF Hunsdon at 12 minutes 50 seconds

 

 

and an episode of Griff Rhys Jones series 'Rivers'  The Lea at 25minutes.50seconds ..

 

 

I dont usually tell anyone of these as I was engaged as a researcher for both programmes but ended up appearing reluctantly in both, there was another for the American market regarding the B-26 Bombers of another local WWII airfield, but was only shown once and was archived as a research program. WWII aviation is one of my favourite subjects and hobbies.

The airfield one was made in 2008 and aired on Canadian national television in 2009, then sold to the discovery channel (still get Royalties )and the River Lea one was first aired on 16th Sept 2009.

(I could tell you quite a story about that one and the presenter..but not on here )

I am intrigued ... maybe regale us with it on our next Grand Day Out.... sometime in the next few months maybe ....

Have had a quick look through Denis - to the bits where you are, but have decided to watch the full videos as my entertainment this evening. The Battlefield Mysteries one is very interesting.

Forgot to reply to this after the other recent distraction - really enjoyed the Battlefield Mysteries, so much so that I have now downloaded the whole series! That will fill my time in for the next few days.
