Not that they were known as The Goodies or Monty Python in those days…;o)

Obviously not… but had I put up the title Cambridge Circus no-one would have read the thread… :rolleyes:

When you have finished that have a watch of another of Jack Currie’s great documentaries, The Ausberg Raid:

His documentary ‘The Watchtower’ about East Kirkby used to be on Youtube too but has sadly been removed. He made a fourth doco too, which I have not seen, called “RAF Scampton”

The latest Wings Over New Zealand Show is now online, and it’s another in the “Wings Over Australia” series.

“Episode 92 – WOA – Peter Isaacson” is an interview I did with 95-year-old Wing Commander Peter Isaacson AM, DFC, AFC, DFM, RAAF. He flew Wellington and Lancaster bombers in combat over Europe with No. 460 Squadron RAAF and No. 156 Squadron Pathfinder Force.

Following the completion of 45 operations over enemy territory, Peter and his crew were selected to take a brand new Lancaster from Britain to Australia, during which he became the first pilot to fly one of these large four-engined bombers across the Atlantic and Pacific route. On arrival in Australia, they were then assigned to fly the Lancaster to New Zealand, and Peter became the first pilot to fly any aircraft direct from Melbourne to New Zealand.

Lancaster “Queenie VI” that Peter and his crew flew from Britain to Australia, and then on to New Zealand.

Wings Over New Zealand Show Episode 90 is Now Online!

WINGS OVER AUSTRALIA!!
The “Wings Over Australia” sub-series of the Wings Over New Zealand Show starts right here, right now, with the first episode in the series that James Kightly and I recorded during the epic 17-day tour of Australia in November.

Our guest is Keith Webb, who for many years has devoted his time and skills to filming and recording interviews with Australian Air Force, Army and Navy veterans. He has also made several aviation DVD’s. He gives a fascinating insight into the recording and preserving of first-hand history before it disappears.
