I must have seen Reach For The Sky half a dozen times but it was still a delight to watch it again last weekend on BBC2.

I love aeroplanes and have had a number of years' flying experience. Kenneth More was brilliant in his portrayal of wartime flying ace Douglas Bader.

I met More in the late Fifties in London, when he attended the radio exhibition at Earls Court.

He was much the same as he appeared in his movies - jovial.
