How can rescuing the Gannet be a race against the clock??
Can't say without seeing the programme but it's not unheard of for the place an aircraft is being stored to want rid of it for development purposes etc. Often this leads to an ultimatum along the lines of 'move it by the tenth of June or it's being cut up and taken to the scrap yard'.
