Remembering Les Munro, the last Dambuster pilot

The last surviving World War Two Dambusters pilot has died at the age of 96.

Les Munro piloted one of 19 Lancaster bombers that set out in May 1943 to attack German dams in the Ruhr valley.

The mission, which was later commemorated in a famous film, saw the loss of 8 aircraft.

Danny Savage met him in 2008.
