Before listening to this episode I had never hear of Thomas Gray or Donald Garland. Such a brave and tragic story, it also shows how the war decimated families. I cant even imagine the grief the Garland family must have gone through. Powerful Stuff, great episode.

Throwback to Oosterbeek cemetery before the service. Polish armed forces pay their respects. I watched them place a rose on every grave and spoke with a couple. Very moving! So glad I was able to attend!

Gone back into the archive and found the video I took at Old Warden Airshow of Vulcan XH558 Last display in October 2015. 10 Years this year, never heard an aircraft set so many car alarms off before! My Favourite of all time #RAF

Hello to my new followers from the starter pack. I usually post items from the IBCC Digital Archive like these pages from P/O Eric Sanger's prisoner of war log. He flew op's as an observer with 9 Squadron before being shot down and becoming a POW. ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/...

Also I never thought I could shift Damian Lewis being Winters in my brain, but his performance with Mark Rylance is up there! Wolf Hall is unrivalled!

Absolute masterpiece, Mark Rylance is sublime. You know how it’s going to end but you still hope that he makes it out! This show will be spoken about for years to come!
