I've got it on dvd but I'm watching again, its a class film.

I always do that, watch it on TV complete with annoying Ad breaks when I have an un interupted version on DVD sitting in the shelf.
Love the movie just a bit hard for a sunday night.... Without sounding too girly sunday nights are for comedies and the occassional Romcom!

First time I'd seen the film was last night, really amazing!
I am fascinated by Garrigan, I wonder if there was a real Garrigan?
I've found this, although it seems like pure conjecture: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Is_there_a_real_Nicholas_Garrigan
EDIT: It seems the fictional Garrigan character certainly wasn't the innocent blue-eyed boy depicted in the film! More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Astles and http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview/id/771727.html

I knew Giles Foden (author of the Book the film was based on), really nice guy. Although I enjoyed the film, preferred the book (isn't that always the case).
His personally signed copy to me, has pride of place on my bookshelf.

Fantastic film, I lived and worked in Kampala from 2001 to 2003 and had a great time, got some brilliant stories of high jinks. If I had seen this before going don't think I would have got on the plane. Speaking of planes the wreckage of the hijacked plane is still in plain sight at Entebbe Airport.
