Ewan McGregor to appear in BBC Battle Of Britain documentary


Ewan and his brother Colin, an RAF pilot, will help to mark the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Britain for the BBC. The 90-minute documentary will air in September. According to Broadcast (via Best of Ewan) "the brothers will fly across the skies of England in Spitfires in the one-off BBC1 documentary, The Real Battle Of Britain, guided by surviving pilots, radar operators and ground-crew from the war."

In a statement, Ewan said: 'The Battle Of Britain was a dramatic turning-point in the history of the Second World War and a defining moment in world history.

'It is a privilege for Colin and I to make this documentary; not only to mark the 70th anniversary itself, but to be able to pay tribute to the courage and sacrifice of those who fought during the battle.' [Monsters and Critics]
