‘Actor Martin Shaw takes to the skies to retrace the 1943 raid by 617 Squadron, which used a bouncing bomb to destroy German dams, in a bid to separate the facts from the myths surrounding the famous tale. He also talks to the last living RAF veteran of the mission, as well as a survivor of the tsunami that was caused by the Moehne dam’s destruction, and meets the secret wartime girlfriend of pilot Guy Gibson.’

I saw something like this on TV. It might even have been this film. A great tribute to those brave fliers, and the inventive mind of Barnes-Wallis.
Best wishes, Pete.

Time to see Leslie Howard again, methinks. Yes, I’m pretty certain I saw the documentary originally.
