Looking back I think you're right. All my videos are in storage so I can't look to see if I have it. Peter Ustinov hosted their 'Wings of the Red Star', or something like that. I just wanted to see them do a 'Wings of the Rising Sun'.

I remember 'Wings of the Red Star' on the Discovery Channel, was a very good programme, one of my favourites. Peter Ustinov's narration was excellent and set just the right tone. The scripts were well written and the subjects always interesting.

Not seen it repeated though, at least not in the UK. Which is a shame, infact I think I'll have a hunt round Amazon see if I can find a copy on DVD.
