The Flying Scotsman

[Angelfishsolo]

Has anyone seen the film "the Flying Scotsman" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0472268/. If not I highly recommend watching it. I found it powerful, emotive and inspirational. I would even go as far as to say it was better than Chariots of Fire.

Great film. I believe there's a DVD doing the rounds on the forum - I had it about 5 months ago.

I didn't realise that it was adapted from a book. I will have to hunt myself down a copy.
