Fly over at Whitby 24th June 2017

I was in Whitby on the Beach on Saturday and we were overflown by a plane.  I've been in Whitby (coincidently) on Armed Forces Day for the past few years and have seen a spitfire fly over a few times.  I'm sure this time however, it was a Hurricane.  I wasn't able to get any markings from it or a decent photo.  It was billed in the press as a Spitfire would fly over.  Anyone know why it wasn't a Spitfire this weekend or am I such a numpty that I can't tell them apart?

The "Spitfire" did not show up at Scarborough as promised at 1.00pm but LF363 did half an hour later.

The change was due to mechanical issues.
