Part 1 of 6 of a wartime drama. RAF pilot Hugh Fleming is hugely successful at anything he turns his hand at, whether sports, flying or women. But all that changes one fateful day when his plane is shot down during the Battle of Britain and he suffers extensive burns. As he battles for life, his mind drifts back to memories past, little knowning that life will never be the same again...

Starring Nigel Havers, Nicholas Pritchard, Fiona Gillies, Bernard Hepton, Barbara Leigh-Hunt, James Fox, Harry Burton, Nicholas Pallister, Rosalind Knight, Tacy Keale, Joanna Lumley, Brian Mitchell, Rachel Fielding and Patrick Ryecart. This is from my own collection and is inspired by the true story of WW2 pilot Richard Hillary. Despite it's somewhat clunky first episode it proves to be an absorbing series once it gets going and gained some publicity when it was first broadcast on May 17th 1991. Please note this contains some swearing.
