Ian Fleming film, aircraft ID's

I was watching a TV film from 1990, loosely based on the early life of Ian Fleming.
Towards the end he lands in a DC-3 and runs past a couple of Spitfires.
One four bladed and one five bladed. Then past a B-25

What’s the story of these aircraft and the location ?

It was called Spymaker and starred Jason Connery – I remember it! I also recall Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland was used for the assault sequence but I don’t remember the aircraft sequence !

Yes that’s the one, and I wondered which castle it was. Bamburgh being one of the few in the area which we haven’t visited.

The glimpse of the aircraft come near the end, when he comes back from the commando raid, and jumps out of the DC-3.
I didn’t see anything on the credits.
