R I P I wonder if the interview was recorded
"In September 2009, on the occasion of the 65th anniversary of the Lord’s Cricket Ground opening as the wartime aircrew reception centre, he was the guest of Jonathan Agnew and the Test Match Special team during a match against Australia. After his live conversation with “Aggers” during the tea interval he was able to salute a Lancaster bomber which overflew the ground to commemorate the anniversary."

It makes you wonder where we would be if it were not for heroes like him? RIP and thankyou G/C Farquharson.

This is the flypast at Lords (not my film), but it was unfortunately followed by an England batting collapse. I was watching the game on TV in a crowded pub, pleased to say that the flypast got big cheer there too!
