Squadron Leader RHS Ewins

*(oh dear, I sound like Richard Hammond! ...tonight on Top Airmen, Kyt discovers a book he hasn't bought, Kitty swoons over a Lancaster onced walked passed by Guy Gibson, Spidge gets bionic knees, Morse and Hugh get stuck into some Scotch, DL excavates a Hampden, AR gets emotional with a Gladiator, John continues his reading of the 453 ORB, I#6 goes coastal, Sarge beats Dirty Dozen at all games, Owen races a 737 against Lee in his BMW, CT drops her fridge door from a great height to determine its aerodynamics, Tom speaks Japanese, Nick goes digging and Andy falls off his chair)
