15 cwt Morris-Commercial CS8. Probably the best known CS8 Morris seen around the world would be the vehicle used in the 1960's U.S. TV comedy series " HOGAN'S HEROES " . Set in a WW2 POW camp the vehicle appeared in many episodes as a German truck . It was a rather lucky break for the series makers that this was historically correct as many CS8's were captured at Dunkirk and subsequently used by the Wermacht .

There are half a dozen or so people watching the aeroplane, probably the most exciting event of the day in the rather spartan "Holiday Camp".
