James May: James May's Toy Stories Special - Flight Club

You're welcome! Making the show was absolutely fantastic, such an experience.
It was one of my favorites. I sometimes put the final flight on as I am going to sleep.

Peaceful and beautiful.

I was glad the first day failed.

We knew it wouldn't work but we had to go for it anyway just to get some footage. At that time we had absolutely no idea whether anybody could even do the next day let alone if the weather would be good enough. I was genuinely supposed to be at work, but obviously couldn't turn down the opportunity being presented to me. The footage is absolutely stunning though. I do love going back and watching that final flight much like you. I was so pleased about the backing soundtrack, the choice of music throughout the entire show I thought was brilliant.
 
Just a note: Ilfracombe is definitely worth visiting. Barnstaple too, not far away...
