Review
My sister who lives in Minnesota told me about this series after she started getting at the library.. I got Season 1 & 2 for her birthday watched them and preordered Season 3.. Everyone in my family now is watching itthat would be Minn Washington state and Florida. My Dad was a B17 pilot during WWII both he and my mother really enjoy this story. One really bonds with the characters and the added plus of learning about wartime Britain is fascinating. I highly recommend this seriesreally good stories and history too. Each DVD seems to have an extra about the actual events that take place in the story. More and more I find I am looking towards the UK for quality entertainment both in movies and TV..Hope they keep it coming!
