The Bill Brewster Podcast #811 (Short Version)

David Farnell joined the RAF as part of his National Service. In this clip he describes arriving at Edinburgh Field, the Royal Australian Air Force base, where he worked in operations. He goes on to tell a remarkable story about being invited to witness the Taranaki detonation (6 October 1957) from the air. This was the third and final round of Operation Antler in Maralinga, South Australia.

This is a short extract from an in-depth interview. David Farnell was recorded for the Oral History of British Nuclear Test Veterans project in 2024. The interviewer was Joshua A Bushen. This project was run in partnership with National Life Stories and the full interview can be accessed at the British Library.

Transcript:
Ohh, you know to actually see those three V bombers, which they were, they were designed for dropping atom bombs on somebody. And I, anyway, they came over and you could sit there, they were there to be seen. But we were all told to sign the Official Secrets Act. So there were things you felt you couldn’t really talk about a great deal.

Yeah.

And then the day came when I heard about this bomb that was going to be suspended from balloons. And there was a flight, a flying officer, no, a flight, what’s the, pilot officer. That’s the lowest rank of officer. In the dark blue dress uniform of the Royal Australian Air Force. Anyway, he’d started bragging about this flight that was going up. To watch, to look out for these balloons breaking free. And it was a RAAF Lincoln bomber, which looks like a Lancaster but is slightly newer, I think. It’s got those two big fins at the end and a rear gunner’s turret, a middle turret and the forward gunner. And it was armed to shoot down the balloons should they float away. And I said, ‘Ohh, I wouldn’t mind going up in that,’ and he fixed it, just like that.

Yeah.

He said, ‘I fixed it, turn up at such and such a time and such and such a place’. So I did. And they put me in the little white wellies. White overalls. Quartz fibre dosimeter. The other one, I’ve forgotten what it’s called, a badge.

Oh a film badge, is it?

Yeah, a film badge. Patch for one eye, lest I see the detonation and be blinded in the other one. And I got on this aeroplane, and the captain welcomed me on board and sat me down and told me where to go. And that was it. We took off, flew to Maralinga.

Full tracklist & Video Mix: bleep.com/bleep-mix-309-dj-food

To celebrate the release of the Telepathic Fish compilation, we have a special ‘O Is For Orange 2025’ Bleep Mix from DJ Food.

"A version of this mix first appeared in 2013 at a night to celebrate the release of Boards of Canada’s ‘Tomorrow’s Harvest’ LP release. It then morphed into an Audio Video DJ set that I toured around the UK in 2019, playing the Bluedot festival to a packed tent that year. The idea was to thread Boards of Canada’s music with original sample sources, tracks they’d remixed, fan remixes or songs that fitted their sonic blueprint.

I recently resurrected and refined the mix for a gig booking, updating it into a new version. This happened to be a week before I was due to deliver my guest mix to Bleep and it seemed to be too good an opportunity to pass up. I abandoned the mix I was going to deliver and put down the first hour of the ‘Orange’ set including a video mix to go with it. I used stem splitting apps to deconstruct some of the tracks into unique versions before video mixing it all on turntables using Serato then editing the footage in Premiere." - @strictly
