According to the local press they will overfly the Helicopter museum at Weston Super Mare.

If that route proves accurate they should overfly my patch, so will keep 'em peeled. I'm sure I'll hear them first.
Thanks for the heads up Keith.

Not seen number of frames mentioned until now
The Lynx helicopter is to be replaced with the Wildcat this year, so to mark the occasion 5 Lynx helicopters will conduct a flying tour starting from RAF Odiham on 16 January. We'll be live on Facebook from 0845 on the 16th...

I read somewhere that there is an alternative date if the weather tomorrow is awful.

I've just seen them, passed over the National Memorial Arboretum at Alrewas.
I counted four, but didn't see (or hear) any accompanying Chinook.
Showing ZG917, VALHLA01, 43C547 on ADS-B
Hopefully should be easy enough to identify the four soon.
