A tribute to those 'dirty, grimy wonderful gentlemen' who dropped from the clouds to fight where they stood at the battle of Arnhem 25 years ago
A year after the battle many of the survivors went back to take part in this remarkable film, which re-creates with extraordinary accuracy the nine-day engagement
It was a historic battle involving the greatest flying armada of the war, a battle which featured incredible heroism and which, though lost, advanced victory
Although no credits are given, many of the leading names of the British film industry took part

Highlights of speedway's night of the year' when 80,000 fans pack the Empire Stadium, Wembley, to watch 16 top riders race for the world's title
Among this year's finalists are Ivan Mauger (New Zealand: World Champion 1968); Ove Fundin (Sweden: World Champion 1956, 1960, 1961, 1963, 1967); and Barry Briggs (New Zealand: World Champion 1957, 1958, 1964, 1966)
