In the summer of 1940, with the rest of Europe already conquered, Hitler's armies prepared to invade England. There seemed little to. stop them. Britain stood alone, her armies driven from the beaches at Dunkirk. All that remained was for Hermann Goring's invincible Luftwaffe to sweep the pitiable remnants of the RAF from the sky, and the invasion could begin. That invasion never took place. Goring's Luftwaffe was confronted and ultimately defeated by a handful of British and Allied pilots-a tiny Band of Brothers to be known forever after as "The Few". For fifty years theirs has been a story that has inspired all those who honour courage, selflessness and duty. Now this specially commissioned 50th Anniversary tribute brings to life England's finest hour-and one of history's finest moments.
