Homeground: Missing in Action

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

In 1944 a Lancaster bomber left Britain to carry out a raid on Germany, but only got as far as the Netherlands before it crashed, killing all seven men on board. After 56 years officially listed as missing in action, their remains were discovered entombed in the plane. This film follows the process undertaken to have them formally buried.
