RAF on Corrie!!
Liam rescued by the light blue after falling down in the lakes.
Given Corries previous with positions of authority, - IE police arrogance and brutality, and in the same episode a dominatrix nurse, I half expected a close up of two handlebar moustached pilots, but they spared us that.
Got a Squadron Leader on the winch though, minor casting/props slip up...Or did somebody pull rank to get on the telly???

OK I'm a sad git, admitted, but in the days I had to watch 'Emmerdale' contiously with my girlfriend, I noticed the pub has wall plaques of a Red Arrows Hawk, and a Typhoon.
A friend of a friend involved with the production team ? Just very mildly curious, I suppose it could be because those aircraft are now regarded as fairly local to the set...
It's OK honestly, I see the girlfriend most of the time, and watch 'Stargate' the rest - actually I love 'Stargate for the tongue-in-cheek...such as " Mayday, we are SO going in ! "

Whatever is 'Corrie'?
Meanwhile, men around the country can use this ' nagging free period' to do manly things i.e tinker with old motorbikes in the garage, smoke a pipe whilst reading gentlemen's literature, enjoy fine wines / malts etc etc.
Also look under, 'benders', Neighbours, Holby and other related medical / vetiinary dramas (although Holby does have the benefit of having Tina Hobley in a Staff Nurses uniform, yum).
One learns that 'Corrie', is, in fact, 'Coronation Street' which used to be nicknamed 'The Street'?
I vaguely recall seeing that around 45 years ago in grainy old 405 line black and white - with Ena Sharples, Albert Tatlock, someone called 'Contraceptive Hewitt' etc? It looked pretty grim 'oop North back then - and probably still is.
Whereas one's god-daughter's enthusiasm for 'Neighbours' led one to discover a variety of eminently $haggable Ozzie babes bouncing across the screen. So I pretend to watch it in order to keep up with god-daughter.....
Have just checked to see who Tina Hobley is......
A staff nurse's uniform you say..... That will certainly merit closer investigation!!

Tina's definately worth a look.
Holby also currently features Patsy Kensit, who I'm sure does it for some.
Susannah York was also in it a couple of years ago.... I can sense BEags getting all in a lather at the mere mention of her name.

Patsy Kensit?
Oooh....yes! Well, certainly in Lethal Weapon 2. And very amusing in 'Blame it on the Bellboy'.
Holby is sounding more interesting by the minute!

Good grief, aircraft can be asked nicely not to roar overhead while your're shooting films? I had no idea!
Now can we please just get the approach to Heathrow moved away from Fulham for the next 18 months...

Not sure it was OASC - I suspect one of the preliminary interviews with the CIO. Apparently one of the programme's scriptwriters was an RAF recruiter in a previous career
