Brilliant video. I remember watching the program on tv back in 93, it was presented by Sir Richard Todd. A few of the original 617 squadron members were also there being interviewed. I recorded the program onto vhs which i still have today but slightly worn out through continous viewing. I have to admit, watching this video did bring a lump to my throat at the sight and sound of the lanc flying over that dam. It's such a pity about the mossie. The tornado's were actually from 617 squadron
