The Reds have had a picture of the team in the Woolpack since the early days in the Gnats:D

Subsequently other memebers flew with the Blades in their Extras but this didn’t appear on the TV but the pictures are on the wall of the Woolpack.

It was a charity event in the programe – one of the characters was raising money and would not do the stunt unless someone else went up with them and donated money.

In the end it was the husband taking her place as she threw a wobbly and would not do it.

Yes, it was shown in an episode during February this year and was filmed at Sywell.

They also did some work with the Utterly Butterly team and was shown in an epsode either last year or the year before.

ISTR reading somewhere that the producers of Emmerdale have a good relationship with Linton, and when shooting outdoor scenes they ask for an unofficial ‘avoid’ of the set.

As a result of the rapport and by way of thanks, the production team put the pics on display.

Maybe the Tucano print came from Leeming.

I seem to remember an episode in which a couple of the characters in the soap did some aeros at Breighton (?) in two Extras. Subsequently other memebers flew with the Blades in their Extras but this didn’t appear on the TV but the pictures are on the wall of the Woolpack. As to the reason for the Arrows and Tucano I’ve no idea but there are Ferrari and McLaren prints in one of the houses and I don’t remember them appearing at Silverstone.

The other picture is the crew and helicopter of the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
