This footage was filmed and produced 30 June 2021.

For the first time in more than 10 years, the iconic blimp is in the UK - it is known around the globe for its aerial coverage of sports and entertainment events, including FA Cup finals at Wembley and Live Aid.

The blimp, which is more than 75 metres long and almost 18 metres in height, is more commonly seen flying in the United States at major events.

It made its first European flight over Cardington, England, in June 1972, and has since appeared at a number of prominent sporting and cultural events, including the 1980 FA Cup Final at Wembley, Live Aid in 1985 and even two royal weddings.
