2: David Lomax concludes the story of the women who flew in the Second World War with the Air Transport Auxiliary. Tonight he tells of the all-women ferry pool at Hamble, near Southampton, and of their adventures flying their aircraft with no navigation aids or radio.
How just three years after flying small club aeroplanes they were piloting the biggest bombers and how American girls crossed the Atlantic to join them. At the end of the war they quietly returned to civilian life, their achievements quickly forgotten. Film editor PETER HUNT Producer JOHN COLEMAN

Where the public sets the agenda
Last Thursday, Ballesteros, Watson and Faldo commenced battle for the £50,000 British Open Golf Championship at St Andrews.
On the Middlesbrough municipal greens the winner will take home 50p when Mark, Jeff, Dougie and Dave play their own private championship between trips to the Jobcentre.
'When you come out here, you become a man again for a couple of hours', Dougie on the 4th hole, 'you never know who you're going to play with - it's a great leveller'. The odd club comedian, the passing millionaire; that's when for these council blouse golfers the stakes become higher, maybe a fiver - if they don't lose their ball.
