BBC documentary: "Concorde: A Supersonic Story"

Post by Dan O'Hagan »

Available on iPlayer now. Think it's a new programme, certainly don't recall seeing it before. Very well made, in the same vein as "Jet: When Britain Ruled The Skies".

Well, that's on straight on the planner, who could miss the chance to catch up with Concorde-captain-John-Hutchinson?

Seriously, thanks for the tip off, sounds an interesting watch and it had passed me by. Concorde seems far too long ago already.

Just noticed my typo, damn predictions texture!! 'phone obviously thought I was talking about an ex Aussie singer!
It's a good watch, nothing too in depth or new is raised and there's a little too much Joan Collins but overall decent.

Does Airport 79 and outlooping a Mirage F1 get a mention? :grin:
