Tonight, instead of some dancing program(!), i watched "B-29 Frozen in Time" which i had previously recorded from PBS America, about the attempted recovery of a B-29 from Greenland

The whole program is also available on YouTube as well...



If you are of a nervous disposition, you should know it does not end well....

If it wasn't so remote they could have been prepared for that eventuality.

Yes, excellent programme. Highly recommended viewing & definitely better than that dancing programme or 'talentless idol' & all the other Saturday night rubbish.

I've had it on dvd for a few years now & is always worth a re-watch.

It's a fascinating but pretty tragic story it has to be said.
