Battle of Britain, Tonight, 8.30pm, BBC One.

I'm really surprised 'Battle of Britain' hasn't been shown recently. Unless anyone knows different. I'm sure that deserves a showing more than Top Gun or Memphis Bell at this time of year, although both are good films.

It was on a couple of weeks ago. I remember because the kids wanted to watch "their programmes" and not "Daddys old boring film!" ~x(
