That version goes in short following:

FC was indeed near to be downed at one point of the battle (lack of pilots and/or planes) and only the tactical changing of the Luftwaffes orders (to attack cities, not airfields anymore) save it from being extinguished.
That change was probably ingnited by a Ju88, that dropped its bombs accidentially over London, which was avenged by RAF bombing Berlin in (one of) the next night. Since then Hitler gaver order to attack cities to counter that terror with terror.

I bet its wrong in detail, but what about it in the general layout?
Maybe had something to do with the day when all British reserves were committed. Perhaps that day the LW had sent all theirs too? One more raid would have gone through untouched and the limit of resistance would have been seen.

Best luck for the British was that the German Leader was no good at being Mr. Cool and Collected.
