Pauline was a keeper! My girlfriends back then here in the States insisted on automatics and power everything.

PS--as a boy in the fifties and sixties I was fascinated with the difference between our cars here in the US and the British choices. As with our own industry, the second World War was a death sentence for so many fine brands who just couldn't compete any more.

I think the headlights on that P-IV are funny looking with the modern lights inside the old shells. But, if one looks at a Silver Wraith from the mid fifties on, the modern headlights look too small! Thanks for the great video.

Hillary flew both Blenheim and Beaufighter night fighters. The Blenheim he flew was a night fighter version with four 0.303 guns in a belly pack and no bombs. He preferred the Beaufighter as it had lighter controls. Also, there is no such thing as a 'bacterial virus.' Wound infections are caused only by bacteria.

7:10 Very good film i remember seeing it when it was first screened in 1999 or 2000 i think. So many remarkable qualities in one man. A tragedy that he didnt survive to write broadcast and live.

I had a 1957, and a 1959 Hillman Minx convertable. They were tough little Cars. They lacked the handling that Winter Driving in Minnesota required. A bit less fun to drive than a Ford Falcon of 1960 on ..... But I enjoyed the challenge of finding Lucas Parts in America.

I recently took a DNA test and it turned out my unknown Grandfather was a Spitfire Pilot, now researching him, it's amazing. They were so brave. If you have ever seen R W Greenaway of the 91 Sqn's log book (English pilot trained and retained as an instructor in Canada before going into combat in early 45) let me know as I only have a few copied pages but I know its out there somewhere, would love to find it.

It's hard to imagine a Bugatti Atlaintique owner driving one outside ever. This was a lot of years ago. Now they are worth Stupid money. It was the most expensive car for a bit if I recall correctly. Luv and Peace.

@TR4man 8 ай бұрын

The colour is actually Ice Blue Metallic. It needed new outriggers, suspension arms and a few other things (all of which have now been done). Not bad for a 25 year old car!

Im related to the Jowett family, my gran or Auntie were related. My mum was adopted by my gran, Irene Wood. In Bradford in 1947, my mum was from Ireland. Id love to hear from someone about the family, i have a family photo & also a grandfather clock made by him. I remember the name Elsie Jowett getting talked about a lot when i was little.

Thank you for uploading this. I read The Last Enemy when I was a boy in Lima, Peru. It was a condensed book version published in a 1942 Reader's Digest. As is the case with most Spanish translations the title was completely changed. "My Baptism of Fire in the RAF" was the title for the Spanish speaking market. Overly dramatic, I know. I really enjoyed it and years later read the complete version as an adult in English. Hillary's book had an unforgettable impact in me, and my fascination with the Battle of Britain is reflected in some of my aviation art.

Is there any way to use this footage please?. Ivan Dutton is interviewed on here. Now aged 83 he has a successful KZbin Channel, SHED Racing, in which he entertains his 18.5k viewers with restoration, racing, anecdotes etc. Would be fabulous if we could use some of the footage of him on his channel - obviously with the appropriate credits etc.

I first want to buy one when I was 17 in 1968. The owner wanted $800 (California) but my Dad refused to lend me $400 which I needed to buy it as he thought it was unsafe). Today, at 72 I still would buy one but only if it had a disk brakes 😊.

About 7 of 8 years ago I met John F Kennedy, his wife and the James Radley Silver Gohst in Hum, Croatia. As a car enthousiast I loved to see the RR and talks with John about it. He invited me for the next day to Buzet. I went there and was invited again to make that day a trip. It went to be an unforgetaball day, which I still remember and brings back tears of luck and happiness of meeting John F Kennedy (AKA James Radley), his wunderfull wife end car. THANK YOU FOR THAT WUNDERFULL MEETING AND INVITING JOHN!

As an RAF pilot sitting on 40 galls of 130 octane, we wore Nomex flight suits and tight fire resistant gloves, white. We could have as many pairs as we wanted. Once hands burned, no more flying. CAVU skies to all aviators.
