    Bought back many memories. I was 13 at the time and a member of the 8th Basingstoke Air Scouts, who can be seen in the background holding the public back. Spent many happy weekends at Lasham with the Scouts,

    The music makes Phil out to be some sort of god like person yet he was just a privileged billionaire and a bit of an oaf at times.

      Doesn’t fit, I agree. The organ is way out of touch.
