The dislikes are from Stuka crews.
the spitfire was respected and feared by the Luftwaffe well mostly feared if you were a Junkers Stuka Sturzkampfflugzeug pilot or gunner or a bomber crew

Goering: “Come, I am here to help! Anything you need!”
German Officer: “Give me a squadron of Spitfires sir”
Nein, sie sind von den ME 109-Jungs. Sie waren Fotzen.
Absolut, mein lieber Kerl, "What-ho"! LOL 😂
Brilliant
"We were not late.. we were simply arriving in style"

They should be here 5 minutes ago VROOOOOOM
Best Top Gear entrance ever...
Daka against the Jerry boche again!
@@jonnnyren6245 and it wasn't even an entrance lol
“We’re on our own, we’re playing for time, and it’s running out!”
Just as well they weren't on their own. 13% of the kills during the BoB came from pilots of the nation they went to war for in the first place. Repeat please!
@@PolakInHolland I think it referred to fighter command being on it's own, regardless of their pilots nationality. Nonetheless you're right
whenever I do warthunder realistic battles in a spitfire or hurricane, I open a steam tab and listen to this in a loop.
weirdly enough I either listen to the themes from 633 squadron or zulu, just something so great about these old film themes.
Roger that! Tally ho chaps!!!!
Same
Same
Home and tea for all
This always reminds me of my grandfather who served in the RAF! Gone but not forgotten.
Same here my grandad was a b.o.b pilot we owe the young men of the RAF a large debt of which we can never repay I thank you all past and present pilots.
Same here my grandad was a B.o.b pilot .
When I saw the movie at age twelve, this song gave me goosebumps. It still does.
RAAF, RAF, RCAF, Polish Flyers, American, Israeli, Czechoslovakian, and so many more! From the bottom of our hearts, we salute you! Never has the whole world owed so much to the so few of the RAF. God bless you, every one. Over the Hills and Far Away.

+CMD REDDY Your Avatar pic....Unturned?
Jonathan Pinckney Made it myself, t'was the advantage of pre 3.0.
Neat.
Jonathan Pinckney I was planning on making a lot more but kinda got bored with it.
CMD REDDY hmph,Fine by me.
Man it's weird listening to this without Clarkson screaming in the background
He's a happy guy who loves war and history.
I can still hear his machine gun sounds
Clarkson is a c**t and he should not be associated with this piece of music and the amazing people it represents.
He's not fit to lick their boots.
"Right lads, break it off, home and tea, for once you deserve it well done everybody"
*Victory roll over Edinburugh*
Flood the cowling. Plenty of it.
well done lads
This really was their finest hour. Eternal respect to Britain for fighting on almost alone...and the Polish pilots who contributed so wonderfully and possibly tipped the edge (13% of the kills) in such a close run battle. Let's not forget the Czechs and Commonwealth too.
The, French, Dutch, Norwegians, South Africans, Aussies, Kiwi's, Canadians, Belgium's, Americans, etc.
Germany Lost. But it took the whole world to beat them.
@@Bruce-1956Mate, thanks for mentioning the Aussies….. Grüße aus Australien.
@@peterfromgw4615 don't mention it. Groetjes uit Nederland.
vero!
Dakka-dakka-dakka-dakka-dakka-dakka..

Enough of that polish chit chat
Help yourselves everybody, there's no fighter escort!
The sounds of a film which defined the key moments in the battle for our nation.
Excellent piece of music as well...
We are losing our nation now without a shot fired given away by traitorous politicians both Blue and Red!
“Give Me a Squadron of Spitfires!”
Goering wasn't very happy when he heard that!
Adolf Galland?
Proud to be British 💂🏻💂🏻💂🏻
From an American... you should be! England... a nation who's history should be admired and respected!
I am proud to be British too
Yes you should be very proud to be British.......... of course today it's the Islamic state of Britain
Well, maybe at one time, but certainly not these days.
This music brings tears to my eyes and hope to my heart.
One of the best war movie scores ever.
This and the sound of a Rolls Royce Merlin engine have to be the two greatest sounds on earth.
This music was played at the very end of my husband Alan's funeral earlier this year. This was his favourite film and this music was played. It was very moving.
23 luftwaffe pilots disliked this.
Cracking comment :)
A days tally of 31 Luftwaffe pilots were shot down as they were too busy screaming their dislikes!!
Look out 109E4 11 Clock
BEWARE OF THE HUN IN THE SUN
Nah, just Goering with 23 accounts lol
"Turn left"
"Repeat please"
"I said turn left"
"Repeat please
"GO LEFT"
"Repeat please"
"Damn, just follow me"
"Repeat please"
This is one of my favorite movies and I'm an American.
"Dakka! Dakka! Dakka! Dakka!"
*WAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHHHH!!!!!*
Bruh, everyone think the Spitfire is the only true hero of Battle of Britain. The Hawker Hurricane was used more in the battle and produced in large numbers. Yes, it's understandable to recognise the Spitfire more with its iconic design and multiple models of the plane but remember there were plenty more hero's in the fight for British air space.
But you know what would have been good if the added the me110 and ju 88 and some of the Italian fiat CR42s
But then again they didn’t have those planes
If they did add it the movie would be the best
Bet it would be expensive making a rebuild or finding a still existing one though
This always reminds me of Top Gear when Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond & James May flew over the the German contestants in RAF Spitfires.
Long Live Great Britain 🇬🇧
I first watched this aged 2 in 2007 on the original VHS. Still my favourite. The soundtrack and real spitfires is what puts it above other classic films like Zulu, A bridge too far, The Longest Day, The Alamo, Tora! Tora! Tora! Etc.
I was travelling from Munich back to the UK when a couple of Lufthansa planes had stopped in the middle of the apron. The pilot asked if, being a much smaller plane, we could go through them - meaning go in between the pair and taxi out in front to take off quicker.
ATC: Um... Sure - Help yourself
British Voice: There's no fighter escort!
One of the best bits in the film when the Luftwaffe are getting whipped
This music makes me go: "Hey! Wheres my Spitifre!?" I feel like I can take on the entire Luftwaffe when hearing this!
My glass of water just turned into a cup of tea
@EyeHawk777
They did. 13 French Pilots participated in the battle of Britain. And hundreds of thousands of them were alongside british forces on D-Day, on the beaches.
i have been looking for this for years, thanks a lot, you earned a sub and like, btw this is amazing with warthunder :D
Every time I listen to music I get tingles in my spine
Great music from a great movie
When I was a kid I must have watched this film 1000 times
"Repeat Please." - dziękuję polskim pilotom. ( Iused google translate for that)
Wonderful music. Must have seen this movie about a twenty times. Love warplanes (with propellers).
My Family was under the Kriegsmarine and Luftwaffe ....
may all soldiers of this War rest in peace !
respect to all !!
Mike
"Where the hell have you been!?"
"Learning to swim"
That is the best song and best movie ever. Thanks for putting that up
I live in West Sussex, under the skies where the Battle of Britain took place. In the 8 miles surrounding my house there are 3 former RAF fighter stations; RAF Westhampnett, RAF Tangmere and RAF Ford. I would love to have the chance to see the Battle of Britain unfold from the ringside seats the people that lived in my house would've had
You wouldn't have liked it at all. The uncertainty of death for you or your family would have been terrifying. Your comment of having 'Ringside' seats gives a rather flippant disregard for the flying men that lost their lives on a daily basis as they were trapped in their burning aircraft, don't you think. This was not entertainment such as seen at a boxing match. This was survival.
Jamie Grover: And yet many memoirs written about that period, especially when the protagonists where children at the time, speak of how exciting it all was.
That's because As children, we had not yet learned about death.
Honestly, you would've been shitting yourself.
lukusism hello, not sure if you return to old posts but I may be able to help. Both my grandfather and his brother were spitfire pilots in the war. The tales of survival odds were very true. My grandmother was well aware of the days when quoted odds of 50/50 survival rates were doing the rounds. One day having shot one of the bastards down and to relieve my grandmothers nerves, my grandfather did a victory roll over their house at tree top height to let her know he was safe and well. My dad who was 3 at the time, his eyes still sparkle at the memory. The merlin engine literally made the lawn shake. The story has an unhappy ending. A jobsworth living next door reported my grandfathers plane to the ministry and he ended up in a world of trouble for his roll. Also the odds proved true; his brother was killed in his plane.
one of the greatest soundtracks ! nice, thx for uploading !
"Give me a squadron of spitfires"
Well, this song truly represents the adrenalin rush that they went through when those brave men went up there.
Wow, good song. :)
We're playing for time, and it's running out
"Iv our pilots heard zis, zen zey miht surrender to ze British."
-Quote, the Luftwaffe
exelent film its ma favoirite of all time i literaly know it off by heart thats how sad i am
I think I found the first comment on this video
@@_nigelgaming 12 years on and it is still my favourite film.
@@centurionsam I've never watched this but it seems cool
0:03 "Starlight Control to Dogtail, keep an eye out for a friendly wing joining you on your port side"
I love it!
This was uploaded on my dad's 39th birthday.
Pierre Henri Clostermann, French-Brazilian (1921 - 2006), the only Brazilian pilot to participate in the Normandy landings. But many other humble Brazilians participated in this war. On the right side, of course.
I think the Spit Mk.I was around 36, the Hurricane I was 34, and the 109 was 35. I could be wrong but I think those are pretty close.
Even by war's end, the Spitfire could only make 40-41 - in its high-altitude versions.
I'm looking for this song! Thanks!
Help your self theirs no fighter escort!
"But we were not late, we were simply arriving in style."
Ron Goodwyn is simply great. Especially for war dramas and great spectacles like 'those magnificent men in their flying machines', he was the apt selection.
I hope they do a remake of this movie soon and use this same theme in it.
No chance of them remaking this these days.
a Lancaster flew over lords cricket ground today and tipped its wing and received a standing ovation , stunning
what a great theme tune. Ranks with dambusters and 633 squadron.
So proud of our spitfire pilots British commonwealth and polish the bravest of the brave lest we forget 🇬🇧
*When people ask me what music I listen to whilst playing war thunder*
great Soundtrack
Thank you Commodore Reddy for including all those who fought in the skies over Britain. I knew a Canadian pilot Charlie Fox in his latter years. Read his book The Flying Fox!
I was sad when I heard the Micheal Caine went down, but it was not until I saw this movie that I realized he played Alfred. :D
But, this would be the perfect intro for like a War Thunder group, or a British cinematic. Like if you think so!
+CMD REDDY yes it would, but don't compare war thunder ( an unrealistic Russian bias shite game) to real life, if it were real the spitfire and hurricane would wreck everything. None of this lagg 3 being better bolloks
robert clarke I cannot agree with you more, it is unrealistic and biased towards Russian aviation. And I'll let you know that I gave a presentation on this conflict at my local CAP squadron, some of the older cadets laughed and sadly most were officers so I couldn't tell them to shut the **** up.
I once heard russian gaming bias described by a WoT player as, Russian vehicles were good, unless they had to drive to the fight.
I was also pissed when they took down the world flags being for free due to Ukraine supportive people.
robert clarke late comment but the p51d would have crushed the spitfire
True but too bad it was still on the drawing board when the RAF took the Spitfires and Hurricanes up to defend democracy.
you are quite correct two cracking themes from ron goodwin
Aewsome!! Little tidbit.. Ron Goodwin also orchestrated the music for 'Force 10 From Navarone' directed as well by Guy Hamilton.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
Let's not forget the Americans who served in the Eagle Squadron of the RAF before the US officially entered the war.
Yeah was really cool their arrival in those spitfires with this music.
tis awesome mate.
Agree entirely, Simon. Canadian Highland regiments still bring a bit of a lump to my throat!
I learnt how to build my own missions on Combat Fight Simulator 2 and added this music as well as 633 Sqn etc. And although it was in the Pacific theater it was great to shoot down Zeros with this music playing in the background. I can`t play it anymore as CFS2 won`t work on SHITTY windows 10.
Great film, great theme and oh... Susannah York!
Poland and the Czech Pilots were involved also Canada and Australia declared war on Germany shortly after the Germans invaded Poland. The Poles and the Czechs had combat experience in both Poland and France and several were aces before they ever got into the Battle of Britain

Repeat, please

Repeat, please
For empty heads repeat! Vector 2-0-1
Dear God I'm proud to be British
A massive salute to the overwhelmingly BRITISH pilots who fought for their homeland. That often gets forgotten in the incessant need to include others: That this was a British victory by Brits for Brits.
The bravery and contributions of the minority non-Brits should NEVER take precedence over that.
I went from the "Where Eagles Dare" theme to here, and then hopped in the Hawker Hurricane, er, Jaguar XK8, and went to blockbuster to rent them, and they don't have either. How sad is that, I remember 5 years ago renting this movie from Blockbuster.
I grew up with this
There are still two flying and one in my country that did, but when the museum that it's in bought it they filled in three of it's engine's and left it too rot on display (without the guys who restored it knowing). It'll cost more to restore now then twenty years of maintenance (fuel and insurance is another matter).
Brilliant.
I grew up with this movie and "The longest day" *sigh
Polakin Holland: Don't get offended; the revision isn't saying the squaddies aren't telling the truth, it's just that when you have a BIG Furball, a pilot can't watch his target for TOO long or else he'll end up with a bandit on his OWN tail. It's only natural when you take a squirt & then break away at 500KPH & then you look back & see a split second glimpse of a plane falling with smoke trailing, you're gonna think you killed that plane.
POV: this is the first thing you hear in the Sky On Fire menu:
Taka Taka Taka Taka Taka Taka Taka
Top Gear!
Mike Comrie battle of britain actually but thank you for so much for coming
Mike Comrie Tonight on first gear: Hammond drives a death trap.
Ευχαριστούμε πολυ για την καταχωρηση
Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few
God bless him (I'm Irish so this comment stood out to me)
The one time you are glad when someone's Spit is in the air.
hello ron godwin I love your great music
Timeless ! we have Spitfire warbirds here in NZ ✈️🇳🇿
EPIC!!! They don't make them like that anymore!
this deserves a reboot
jolly good!
@QuaVzBuMzGB Well, according to the limited resources I can access here (i.e. the net), the engine in the Bell P-59 (the first US jet fighter) came from the Power Jets W.1 which came from the Gloster E.28/39 and was built under contract in the US. The engine in the Lockheed P-80, the first operationally used jet fighter in the USAAF came from plans developed from a British de Havilland H-1 B turbojet.
But I don't remember jet engines being in the discussion... :-)
"tower what would you like us to do ,? stand down or blowup ? absoultly love this film jsut got it on dvd,
One of the most poignant scenes in the movie is when Canfield's black lab is looking into the sky for him to come back but he never does.
same, mine was in the observer corps in Egypt I think & he was in a hawker hart I think it was called. He was the first to drop a bomb in Egypt during WWII
We are not retreating..we are simply advancing in another direction
Inspiring!😎🇨🇦
Like 'Tora, Tora, Tora' , another WW2 Docu-drama made in 1970---no frills, no romances just the lead up to the attack on Pearl Harbor as told by both sides...Don't get me wrong I have BoB along with Longest Day, Bridge too Far, Dam Busters, Cruel Sea, Zulu & 'TTT' as well...LOVE them all---I wish the British Film industry STILL made movies like that!
