I have tons of Lancaster related programs on video, but none on DVD.
An old favourite is one that I taped from the TV as a kid; (early 80’s) narrated by Michael Dean, it starts with briefing footage from 467 Sqdn at Waddington, with S-Sugar outside being readied for that night’s trip. The whole history of the Lanc is then related, and the film ends with now ancient colour footage of PA474, flown by Scot Anderson it appears, taking off, flying around the Channel Islands, then landing and taxying back in front of the Reds, all to the tune of some semi-classical music; does anyone recognise which one this is, and perhaps tell me which if any of the myriad of DVDs available this one is?
Thanks!

Thanks for the help-I’ve been hunting far and wide, but sadly, I’m pretty sure now that like many of the older aviation titles, it’s not on DVD. Damn!

I have this documentary on video it was released by DD Video some years ago and was one of the first videos I bought along with a vid about the Shackleton. Im not sure if it is available on DVD, there is nothing on amazon or the DD Video website but you could try e-mailing the customer services manager at [email]jbooth@dd-video.co.uk[/email], hope this helps.

Just ‘bumping’ this in case not everybody has re-found their way here yet!
