No problem. I'm really looking forward to reading it when it's finished.

In my search for WW2 photos I found 16 photos on English Heritage archives site - taken 1998 - can't see them on line - have to order - mostly of the missile site

Also Inside Out East Midlands TV programme last night - 22/10 - on Cuban missile crisis had film of missile sites. Can't find it on IPlayer yet

I've not seen it yet, but apparently it's riddled with errors, which is a shame as the news piece the BBC ran was pretty accurate. The regional stuff seems to take longer to appear on iPlayer.

Edit: It's on iPlayer now

Saw this programme wasn't impressed not as much about Thor as I was lead to believe more a hard sell for the Avro Vulcan plus if "the only two remaining Thor bases are Harrington and Caistor" then why have EH listed North Luffenham? and one of the pilots interviewed who I know never was a Vulcan pilot, good old BBC where do I get a license refund?
