Eagle Day: The RAF's Last Stand Against the Luftwaffe

This documentary commemorates the Battle of Britain and the pilots who stopped the Luftwaffe from seizing control of British skies in 1940. It focuses on the pivotal fighting of 15 September, the day Churchill later marked as decisive, following the young airmen and the ground crews who kept them flying. Drawing on the events hour by hour, it shows how close the outcome ran and what was at stake. Stirring and clear, it honours a turning point of the Second World War.
