BBC Documentary

Ewan visits Cranwell

Ewan and his brother Colin visited RAF Cranwell to film part of a BBC documentary, which will be broadcast on Sunday.

Ewan and Colin, who is a former Tornado pilot in the RAF and did his officer training at RAF Cranwell, were trying to discover more about the Battle of Britain when they visited in April.

A spokesman at the RAF base said: “They filmed at College Hall and interviewed cadets undergoing officer training at the Officer and Aircrew Training Unit. We haven’t seen the finished article so we don’t know what’s been cut but it should be good.”

Ewan sick

Ewan has confessed he was sick BEFORE climbing into a plane with fighter pilot brother Colin for the first time.

The Scots heart-throb was taken for a spin in a Cessna aircraft as a teenager shortly after Colin got his flying licence.

But Ewan confessed he was nursing a hangover at the time and vomited on the tarmac - then in the plane after take-off.

He revealed: "I looked around for a sick bag, but there weren't any, and he had to slow down so I could throw up out of the window."

TV viewers will see the Star Wars star take off with Colin again on Sunday, as they fly vintage aircraft for a BBC1 show on the Battle of Britain.
