Hold Your Breath, Sunshine

If it keeps failing then I'll watch the YouTube version, but YT is rarely such good quality... I might try and wait until it's on telly here unless it turns out to be good YT quality, cos I'm sure it must be beautifully shot - and I do hate missing the subtle nuances!
How fab about your dad, and I'm so glad you read his story! There is alot of information out there, but those times must have been so intense, and in ways that we just can't conceive now because it was such a different world to begin with... things they just "got on with" that we consider sooo traumatic (like Wellsley not suffering a nervous breakdown until he'd flown upteen extra Spitfire missions when for many kids now just being expected to fly a Spit would be overwhelming - too cold, too scary, never mind in the rain!) If your dad is ever up for going a bit more public, then I'd love to read such a personal account!
