Guy Martin's Battle of Britain (2021)
Guy Martin follows in the footsteps of the brave young pilots of World War Two. From basic training to fully fledged fighter pilot. Guy Martin has mastered many machines, but would he have made the grade as a 'Battle of Britain' pilot? The two programmes crank up the jeopardy as to whether he will make it through a Second World War training course to face a Battle-of-Britain-style dogfight with a Messerschmitt. In the first part, Guy Martin' learns how to fly in a 'Tiger Moth' bi-plane, before progressing to the much faster 'Harvard' aircraft and combat manoeuvres. He also tries his hand at clay pigeon shooting, which was used as a training exercise to help rookie pilots shoot fast-moving targets. In the second part, Guy's training ramps up at the UK's only aerial combat school, where he must master dog-fighting at 200mph, handling extreme g-force, and flying upside down. He enlists the help of the Parachute Regiment for a unique experiment demonstrating the firepower of Second World War aircraft machine guns, before being allowed behind the joystick of the world's only two-seater 'Hawker Hurricane' to face a 'Messerschmitt 109' in the skies over Kent.::Britrick_c21
