Battle of Britain and the Observer Corps | Britain's key to success?

Who were the Observer Corps and what role did they play in the Battle of Britain? Could you spot the difference between a Bf 109 and a Spitfire? Just under 3,000 RAF aircrew risked their lives to face the Luftwaffe during the Battle of Britain, yet on the ground, around 30,000 volunteers formed a highly-trained network of aircraft observers working around the clock to support the men in the air. Curator Adrian Kerrison tells us about the vital role of the Observer Corps during the Battle of Britain.
