About Concorde: A Supersonic Story

As new £19million museum Aerospace Bristol prepares to open, this documentary takes a look at the life of the most glamorous plane ever built. Rare footage tells the forgotten row between the French and British governments over the name of Concorde, which threatened to derail the whole project. Engineers, flight technicians and frequent fliers tell the supersonic story, aided by politician Michael Heseltine and actress Joan Collins, while a former passenger recalls sharing an intimate moment with the Rolling Stones. Narrated by Sophie Okonedo
