The premise
Here’s the bit.
A Lancaster crew struggles to keep its damaged aircraft airborne when Dobbsy arrives to show his son James where he works. The skipper explains the cockpit instruments while the copilot panics, treating the visit as an ordinary career lesson. Even a crash in occupied France cannot interrupt the tour. When a German soldier captures them, he gives his own young companion an equally matter-of-fact demonstration.

That means hands up, James.
A little extra
Notes from the archive.

One more couldn’t hurt.
