This documentary touched me so much, these guys were 18-22 years old and they did what they needed to do to defend the UK, from the Nazi onslaught,
I salute you sirs for your service, we will never forget what you did for us, although the UK has gone to s**t for the last few years, your sacrifice will never be forgotten.
Plot summary
From the team behind SPITFIRE comes LANCASTER, the story of the iconic WW2 bomber told through the words of the last surviving crew members, re-mastered archive material and extraordinary aerial footage of the RAF's last airworthy Lancaster. Responsible for some of the most famous and infamous missions in WW2 history, from the Dambuster raids to the controversial bombing of Dresden, the Lancaster would help turn the tide of war. But there was a deadly price to be paid. 55,000 young men - half of all Bomber Command's aircrew - died over Nazi occupied Europe. Their average age was just 22. LANCASTER is an epic and poignant story of courage, fear, friendship and the moral complexities of war.

The shear nearve tingling noise fury of four Rolls Royce Merlin engines on full chat must surely have inspired legendary heavy metal band, Motorhead to play "Bomber".
But the story of the iconic weapon of war and the brave very young men who flew them makes today's ANTIFA wannabes look like the pansy pants little prats they are. We owe these young men so very much and this movie makes that fact plain. Must watch!

A brilliant documentary about not only the plane but the crews as well.taking it through the early days of the war to the introduction of the Lancaster,talking to the members of bomber command crews.told with unflinching candor about their experiences.then as politicians do is ignore them after their sacrifice.well narrated by Charles dance,it would have been churlish to give a lesser rating.
