  • "Long line of jet planes on airfield" - the aircraft seen here are the RAF's "Blue Diamonds" display team, comprising of 16 Hawker Hunter aircraft.

    The statement "Various air to air shots of different passenger aircraft in flight" can be replaced with the following:

    At 04:19, air-to-air shots of a de Havilland DH.125, Reg. No. G-ARYA.

    At 05:19, air-to-air shots of a Royal Navy Blackburn Buccaneer S1.

  • "Plane landing on unknown airport - definitely not Farnborough, possibly just used for air to air shot of the aircraft." - I don't know which airport this is, but the aircraft is a Handley Page HPR.7 Herald 100, Reg. No. G-APWA. This aircraft has been preserved, and as of 2012 was housed at the Museum of Berkshire Aviation.

WW2 accounted for over 60m deaths and innumerable lives shattered. Pathé cameras took to land, sea and air to record the bloodshed. Here are the 10 bloodiest battles that were caught on film.

The great politician and orator Winston Churchill left behind a sea of humourous quips and discerning quotes. We remember some of his finest epigrams and witty ripostes.

British Pathe captured many extraordinary events on film over its 80 year history but sometimes the cameras were switched on when tragedy struck.
