The Red Arrows will hopefully treat plane lovers in Minety, Purton and Royal Wootton Bassett to a fly past this afternoon.
The RAF aerobatics display team will fly over Wiltshire en route to London this afternoon as part of celebrations for the 75th anniversary of VJ Day – marking the Allied forces' victory over Japan and the end of World War Two.

It is expected they will leave the Welsh capital at around 5pm, heading to London for their final display at 5.30pm.
Their route should take them over Royal Wootton Bassett, Purton and Minety. You should keep a lookout at around 5.10-5.15pm for a chance to see the Red Arrows.
