‘Blighty Thank God’ is based on the diary my father – RAF Flt. Sgt. Ron Chapman – kept when a young pilot during World War Two serving in the Middle East and then Italy.
Researching the diary, found 30 years after he died, led me to other resources that helped explain what he was doing day to day, and what was happening around him.
The trailer is an introduction to the series of 12 episodes. Supporting maps and photos are available with each episode. Diary entries and personal photographs are also on this website.
FIRST EPISODE – Death in Winter.
