Away With Words - Season 1 Episode 9
0.00 48 minutes AWAY WITH WORDS presenter Neil Innes takes to the skies as he follows the English language to America - and back - in this week's edition of the fun programme about words and their origins. Beginning with a look at some of the Imperial War Museum's collection of fighter planes at Duxford near Cambridge, Neil visits two wartime airfields, and an American air force base, to explore the ways in which common words and phrases have criss-crossed the Atlantic - by sea on the Mayflower; by air with the American forces and on celluloid with the movies.
