He was not mentioned on todays “Last Word” on Radio 4 at 16:00……….

They don’t always do the deaths of the last 7 days (one of today’s died early Jan), so I suspect he will be on in the next week or so.

Moments before the programme started the BBC2 announcer did say there was a change to the scheduled programme and they were now showing the story of Britain’s Greatest Pilot, Captain Winkle Brown, who passed away last week.

I wonder what the chances are that this will be seen in the USA? I would love to see it.

Try below. Yes, the programme of this Friday is a repeat of last year. And that is when the clip below was recorded by someone.

Happy viewing! 😉

I am pleased to see they are repeating ‘his’ programme. It is a very worthy tribute.
Thanks for the advance notice.
