- Twelve O'Clock High is an American drama series set in World War II. This TV series originally broadcast on ABC-TV for two-and-one-half TV seasons from September 18, 1964, through January 13, 1967; was based on the motion picture Twelve O'Clock High (1949).
this is one of the best episodes of the series!
Love this series, can’t stop watching. Lots of big stars to be in this too.
I tell you another series that I watch from time to time is the B/W Fugitive shows. Also Quinn MArtin production. I just like the way they are laid out. So cool with the epilogue at the end, I never tire of them
Another great episode with a great cast!!!!
One of the best episodes. Lots of suspense and intriguing situations. Nice to see a pre-fab all-star cast too! I guess that obviously added to why it was among the finest in the series. What a lucky director.
Bruce Dern was wonderful at the end of the episode.
Bruce was Dennis Hoppers good buddy. Can you imagine partying with those two knuckleheads! I think Bruce wasnt used to the max. Bruce was a great. bad guy in Gunsmoke too.
@@ziblot1235 he played a mean biker in one The Fugitive episodes' as well.....also a QM Production.
Fine performances here, from Reynolds, Dern, Prine.
"Ramrod" is diabolically clever. He changes aircraft and canopies every other frame!
It is different to see Burt Reynolds playing the bad guy.
Kind of reminds me of his character in real life.
@@TheFishdoctor1952 You must be thinking of Robert Blake.
Or Bruce Dern as the good guy .
Before he became famous, Burt was willing to take any role that came his way.
When we borrowed bits (was in RAF many years ago) from another aircraft (robbing), we use to call the aircraft a Christmas Tree as it was giving us presents!
How did already von Grimelshausen did write in his novel Simplicus Simplicisimus ( 1669) SOLDIERS STEAL; OFFICERS ORGANISE ( direct quote from the book ) - the novel described the life of a young man in the Thirty Year´s War in Germany. It belongs to the works called WORLD LITERAUTRE
In a way Forrest Gump always reminded me at this old classic.
Man so many actors who appeared on both Combat! and 12'o Clock High.
Wow that was an episode w many actors of recognizable fame!
Wow!! Great episode I will put it in my top 5. This and the one with Shatner are two of my favorites. I mean look at this, Burt Reynolds, Bruce Dern (of Gunsmoke fame) How can you miss? THey should have used Bruce a lot more. I also really like the B/W episodes.
Bruce was in a lot of tv shows, not to mention movies. Eeek, he shot John Wayne in The Cowboys!!!
Bruce Dern as the good guy.
Bruce Dern great character actor could play any role from desperados to waist gunner on a B17.
Reynolds plays the same Chapman in the episode "Show Me a Hero, I'll Show you a Bum".
BRUCE DERN had played roles in a couple of episodes on this show.
This episode really is very much like the beloved first ones of the show
Loved how the Luftwaffe squadron just disappeared without attacking the Fort.
Poor ol smokey having to ride a bike. Bet Sally would not fall for him on a bicyle.
All the LT had to do was tell the truth from the beginning. That's how pride leads to a fall.
Good ole Bruce Dern , almost a regular on this series . Andrew Prine and Burt Reynolds ...geeez
So the Bandit started his career of dodging the Bears that long ago.
Since when does a bomber pilot just jump into a P51 without a check out........unrealistic drama.......never the less I m watching and enjoying it all over again since childhood
It was stated in an earlier episode that the colonel had begun his flying career in P51.
yeah, me too! guilty pleasure!
Example of a good opportunity to work on operational security measures and improve on them. The system should have already been in place to prevent such hijacking of a military bomber fully loaded!
Excellent episode! 🎉
Outstanding cast
lol your right, they show the plane -it's a P51-B-close up it's a P51-D
Some of the shots were of an A-36. Note the Allison engine and four 20mm cannon.
They're using two different models of the P 51 in the plane chase scene, the earlier B model and the later D model.
What is the difference between the two?
Look at the Canopies on both of the aircraft the B models had frame canopy while the D models had the bubble canopy.
Actually, it's a P51A, not B. The long fuselage gives it away. The B model was a foot and a half shorter with a shorter wingspan because of aerodynamic overcompensation in yawl control
yaw, not yawl
"May I be Frank?
"No sir, you be Joe and I'll be Frank"
Not only did they use footage of both the P-51 B and D models during the chase scene, but when Burt Reynolds opens fire from the top turret it is a P-39 Airacobra that veers away.
There are several commenters here that really know their planes.
What a way to start the show with the clock at 4:20. Don't mind if I do.... Off I go into the wild blue yonder!
Great movie 3/24/24
The plane The colonel was flying looked like the A-36 Apache the forrunner of the P-51.
John Moore, give us more if you have details? Thank you!
The A-36 had dive brakes on top and under wings which were not present on the P-51. I did not see these in the films but maybe they just did not show up u7nder low res.
running up the power while standing on the brakes was pretty standard in my unit 😶
Funny that in much earlier episodes, Bruce Dern is a Bombardier. How did he get demoted from an officer to a Sgt. Crew Chief? Ha!
Quite the magic P-51.
The TV Salute: Touch the middelfinger to th ecenter of the forhead, with the elbow as low as possible and covering as much as your face as possible with the flat of the hand.
The last time I saw Andrew Prine was in the film "Gettysburg."
RIP Andrew Prine.
B17 Smoke and the Flying Bandit
At 25:25 when he pulled the throttle back I'm not sure if that was 2 or 3 engine he cut power on, but number 1 spooled down.
that was 3 or 4
Omg.Burt Reynolds has aged little since he acted here.I’ve seen him in many shows.
where there two P-51's that were flying ;a P-51A/B & a P-51D ??
I was looking for Rick Dalton instead of Burt in the opening credits!
T'wasn't courage that made him fly that plane.... t'was beauty flew the plane...
Air crews would have called the bomb sight "the football"
The Norton bomb sight....good piece of equipment and valuable to the enemy.
NORDEN
@@gunnmetalblue Thanks.....didn't look right and I didn't know why.
Burt Reynolds has the same "get interned in Switzerland" scam that Larry Blyden tried in season with Robert Lansing.
How the hell does Gallagher fly two models of P51 at the same time and in different liveries? There is no way they would get away with such poor production standards these days. They really let down the actors and script writers.
Blame the dead guy. That leads to further investigation.
Does anyone know why S2E12 was deleted by TH-cam?
What we are dealing with here is a complete lack of respect for the law. I like Burt better in the TransAm. Lol
They called Col Hunter a general
What destroys this series is the way the writers make the commander a push over. Plus he has no screen presence.
i notice that some of the B-17's have chin turrets
They cobble together all the old war footage they can make fit.
They only had one flyable B-17 for the whole series.
Its the G series that only have these chin turrets and others never had them at all.
What neutral country did the aircraft land. Could only be Ireland and that's on the west side of England. The other would be Spain and that's highly unlikely under Franco.
Switzerland.
@@IdiotsBeware1 Or Sweden, which is where the conspirators plan to take the B-17 in S1E26 "Mutiny at Mutiny at Ten Thousand Feet".
This episode is total hogwash ! The U.S had strict rules about family serving in the same units. Let alone the same airplanes. It was not allowed.
does "The Sullivans" ring a bell?...anyone?
@@HonoredGeneral That is why they changed it. All 5 brothers died didn't they?
@@dannyv2468va2 yes, and that was why it was changed. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sullivan_brothers
@@HonoredGeneral Yah but the even earlier rule about all brothers, final male descendants of a family line cannot all serve, was from the Civil War era
I am only watching this episode of season 2 because of the guest stars. Andrew Prine, Bruce Dern, Burt Reynolds & Peter Mark Richman. Then I am done with this great show. Paul Burke my ass.
