Glenn Miller's plane 'was hit by British bombs'

A new TV documentary claims Glenn Miller died after his plane was hit by British bombs.

The Channel 4 programme says a fleet of Lancasters unwittingly jettisoned their bombs onto the band leader.

Glenn Miller's Last Flight will be shown on New Year's Eve.

The theory was first put forward by Fred Shaw, a navigator on one of the Lancasters, reports the Guardian.

His account is backed up by aviation historian Roy Nisbet.

Miller went missing on December 15, 1944 en route to Paris. The plane has never been found.
