Documentary about “Warby” Warburton on now.
There was quite a bit of BofB film footage in the first few minutes, much of it I hadn’t seen before, anyway!!

This programme was on our RTE here last night and was very interesting.
What a man he was, DSO and bar, DFC, a model airman. So sad that he didn’t survive to be lauded for his exploits after the war. But then that can be said about thousands like him.
The programme seemed to hint that maybe Eisenhower junior may have been a little at fault in persuading Warby to take that last flight.
Very sad about his widow, so depressed she ended up drinking herself into an early grave.

Unfortunately I had to miss the second half of it, but I presume it’ll be on again sometime.

Was that the one on late last year?
