Timewatch BBC2 tonight Fri Mar 18th 9pm(?)

Not entirely sure of the time (I spotted it on the Council House Telly Menu) but Timewatch is about Concorde.

The scenes where it was clipping the top of the cloud base and you could see the wing vortices curling the cloud around – this gave me goose bumps.

Then they showed a Grumpy Greer on the show afterwards. No mention of a Lancaster flying out of Duxford! :p

Concorde: A Love Story

Documentary revealing the inside story of how Concorde was designed and built, and how it survived against the odds to become an international icon. Told from the points of view of frequent fliers, engineers, designers, test pilots and flight staff, the programme also looks at the last years of Concorde, and its legacy for British air travel.

Yep, apparently had my Mum in tears…..again!
We often forget that some aircraft really appeal to the wider public such as Concorde and Vulcan.
