I've also seen the first three episodes. I'm not sure if I will continue to watch it. WW2 Aviation movies tend to be pretty much the same. Fire in engine 3. Roger. No fuel. Roger. Just 15 out of 30 came back. Roger. I'll see if I can find Memphis Belle instead, that's one of the better.
Totally agree with you SBā¦Iāve stuck with it (love the opening music) and felt something different (in a positive way)after watching Episode 5My TV pod guys appear to have been pretty spot on regarding this show, but it's now taken a turn.
Ep 5 has a different director and a completely different feel.
CR was talking of the show as a 'what might have been'.
His suggestion is if you gave up early on, skip what you've missed and 'start' at Ep 5.
Sure you might not have a handle on the whole series but 5 onwards is the show you were probably expecting.

Less shocking now!!!!I see his point, but I do think you will miss something if you do, what made episode 5 so shocking was it happening to almost all the main characters
It needed more than just air and airfield scenesTotally agree with you SBā¦Iāve stuck with it (love the opening music) and felt something different (in a positive way)after watching Episode 5
"Those Who Fall" by John Muirhead is a good book for the viewpoint of an American bomber pilot. He was based in Italy before being shot down and becoming a POW, and from memory it's quite poetically written and not in any way at all gung-ho or as cliche ridden as the average war film.
