Oh cool - assuming you live in the UK...have you ever been to places like Duxford or Hendon? they both have amazing collections - if you haven't you don't know what you've missed!
What was the worst Aircraft of WWII?

The Fleet air arm place in Yeovil? yeah i've been there, no Lancasters though - they have full sized lancs at Duxford and Hendon though - you really don't get a true impression of how big those planes are til you stand next to one - forget the B-17, Lancs are HUGE

No mention of the Hallibag 
..not that it was the worst mind you but the guys sure where hanging out for the Lancs when they heard they were getting them ...also regards missions (just a footnote really) when they did a mission to Italy early in the war they used to paint an ice cream cone on the plane instead of a bomb as it was considered a "milkrun" lol.
But back on topic- i think the battle is fairly well up there on my list of planes never to fly near any axis planes if i ever drop into a timewarp

Well- someone needs to foot my bill from Oz 8) ..and if its a reality show they might as well take us for a trip over the Ruhr in the Lanc to make it worthwhile

Yeah, I'd be a goer for that Aussie. I'd certainly like to visit Hendon et al and the Ruhr should be nice in the Spring.
Just think a mere few thousand Euro and you can have the blessing of Aussie and I in your homes!
