episode 740: MIGHTY 8TH - BIG WEEK (Part 5)
“I wonder if you’ve got the guts to lead a big air force. If you haven’t I’ll get someone who has.”
Al Murray and James Holland have reached one of the most important events of the entire air war - Big Week.
From the 21st February 1944 - Friday 25th February 1944, over 10,000 tonnes of bombs were dropped on Germany by US aircraft.
In a new epic seven-part series inspired by the release of ‘Masters Of The Air’ on AppleTV, Al Murray and James Holland tell the true story of the Mighty 8th - one of the most courageous units in the USAAF.
