Reasonable dramatisaton of the Pathfinder force of Bomber Command. Not as well known or reported as the main bombing missions but quite a good telling of the most crucial part of any mission - how to accurately get to the target!

I believe the orginal series had thirteen episodes not twelve on "The Complete Series" DVD. Having said that it was good to watch the series again.

A really excellent and quite forgotten series... The original series had thirteen episodes and many are puzzled by the fact that only twelve made it back to the Squadron to appear in the 'complete DVD series'. The thirteeneth episode still survives- the now sadly defunct company, DD Video, found it along with all the other epsiodes, but of the thirteen, the latter was found to be in a very frail state. Episode thirteen almost certainly could be saved, if the funds necessary for doing this can be found. Hopefully, one day, the said episode will be reunited with 'the rest of the squadron'.

This series was compelling viewing when it first aired altough it was put on late in the evening. It is great to have the whole series on DVD - it brings back the memories! Bomber Command would not have been able to make many of it's critical tactical bombing missions without the pathfinder squadrons - leading the formation over enemy territories across the Channel. The series gives great insight too, to the expectations of the men chosen for the pathfinder force.
Great depiction of the period ,well acted and exciting storylines.
