Guy Martin, 39, took a trip back in time as he learnt to fly a World War 2 fighter plane in his latest series Battle of Britain. While watching the pros zip in and out of the clouds, the


motorcyclist revealed it wasn't as easy as it looks and admitted the had a few "scrapes" at the beginning of his "toughest" challenge yet. The Channel 4 show, which


began last Sunday night, follows the presenter as he trains to be a pilot but suffered a near disaster upon take-off. In a new interview, he described the crate as a "monster" in


the air. “I don’t mind telling you I had a few scrapes when I was in the air learning to fly that monster,” Guy admitted. "It was amazingly difficult!" READ MORE: EAMONN HOLMES


SPILLS BREAKTHROUGH NEWS 'CAN'T BELIEVE I'M SAYING THAT' "The slightest touch on the controls and it moves and dips all over the shop!" And he thinks that the


series bosses knew he may have a slight issue above the clouds. "When we were looping the loop and doing evasive manoeuvres, you have to withstand incredible G-forces," Guy


explained to Radio Times. "I ended up pulling 5G, which really makes you feel sick. The production team put a sick bag in the cockpit because I think they were hoping I’d throw up on


camera! "That just made me more determined to keep everything down," he quipped. "I did have a nagging feeling that I might blow at any moment, but thankfully I managed to


keep a lid on it!" _Guy's full interview is available to read now in Radio Times._ _The final episode of Battle of Britain airs tonight at 9pm on Channel 4. _
