Clunky pacing and terrible set locations are pared with a wondering narrative and largely boring characters. Not sure how the BBC has taken a stellar cast, a seminal and compelling story from England’s history and produced such unwatchable claptrap

Yes bomber command flew at night , and yes inflicted horrific indiscriminate killing , but not out of cowardice as this guff suggests Worth noting 8th army air corp suffered 22% dead of all flight crews compared to 44% of all RAF bomber crews . So twice the attrition rate. My grandfather was a pilot in the RAF from 1936 to 1950 . He served with both American and British crews and was awarded both the UK’s DFC and American AFC. Alive today he would be disgusted at this simplistic MAGA production that betrays not only the camaraderie between USAAF and the RAF but also maligns Bomber Commands huge sacrifice .
