Review of Piece of Cake

Piece of Cake (1988)
3/10
Fiction rather than the real thing
8 February 2024
I bought the CDs and now wished I hadn't. I've not read the fiction but this comes across like it is.

Somebody claiming this is "not to be missed" well I could easily have done without it.

Another comment claiming a "Piece of Trash is slightly over the top but nearer the mark.

I've read lots of WW2 pilot diaries from Ritchie, Clostermann and Braham and night fighters and so on and none of them write about their squadrons being like a full blown public school with bullying and snobbery etc. Yes there was loads of drinking and rampant clowning about but this does not in any way come across as real expect for the fact it is not CGI and written by artificial intelligence (AI). I really not have expect to fast forward lots of this but I have and if you want better easier on the eye WW2 examples then I can give you "We'll Meet Again, which is excellent and "A Family at War, also excellent.
