Summary

As a free bonus livestream episode, James Holland and Al Murray discuss the life and times of the last surviving RAF veteran of The Battle Of Britain, John 'Paddy' Hemingway, who sadly passed away this week at 105. It is also a good time to revisit the myths of The Battle Of Britain, and show concisely the superiority of RAF forces during the summer of 1940, versus their Luftwaffe counterparts.
