Like the footage of the Whitley at the end, pity we didn't get a better shot of the front turret.

Some good details there. I like the VR Sgt pilot cleaning his car wearing a side arm. Evidence that aircrew did wear their issued revolvers.

At least when being filmed. The prewar IRA bombing campaign might also been an influence.
