raf scampton
hemswell was used as a substitute for raf scampton in the ground-based filming of the 1954 film "the dam busters" as the wartime layout of both scampton and hemswell was similar in many places. the film "night bombers" remains the best known filmed record of what raf hemswell looked like during and just after the war, which is a colour film of avro lancasers at hemswell in preparation for a raid over germany which shows briefings, loading of bombs and the raid itself and was the only known colour film of lancasters at war. scenes for the dambusters film were filmed in various offices of the station headquarters; the front entrance, the bedrooms, ante room and dining room of the officers' mess; hangars and the naafi canteen with the latter used for the squadron briefing theatre scenes, as well as on the roadways within the base.
