Default Whats going on in the background?

Hi All


Spotted this in the background watching the BBC program Top Gear last night - Looks like a little movie magic taking place in the background, my guess is parachutists jumping from a C47 for a D-Day film of TV program. Plane looks to be L4 of the ones used in the D-Day Ceremonies this year.

Plane has been supported to be level and that looks like a big blue screen behind it for a little editing magic.

Wonder what movie or program the film went in to?


Cheers Phil

Default Yes, but ...

if you have a look at the date of transmission, and allow for the filming done in advance, it will be a while back.

FURY was filming in the UK then, don't know if a Dak was needed for that.
