Minnie Driver hears how her dad saved his crew in a deadly air battle | Who Do You Think You Are
"Minnie Driver uncovers the remarkable story of her father’s involvement in one of the earliest RAF operations during the war. She meets with historians who reveal how her father faced overwhelming odds in the front turret and saved his crew during the Battle of Helgoland. Minnie also sits down with a 93-year-old veteran who served alongside him, sharing firsthand memories of the mission, the dangers they faced, and the friend her father lost that day. This emotional journey leads Minnie to step into the cramped turret, hear about her father’s struggle to stay alive, and learn how his courageous actions ensured the safety of his crew." from the video introduction
