He he don't worry about it - someone nearly did once at Vue Islington! You went away so fast down the stairs that I had no chance to point out seats to you!

LOL I was so embarrased, I thought to myself I'd better get out of here quickly! I'm surprised I didn't roll down the stairs. I suppose it was because they were actually quite sticky.

I'm now so annoyed at myself for losing my glasses case! :wall:

Saw this in that strange new downstairs screen (10) at Vue Islington. I wonder why they have recently added this auditorium and what the space was used for before? And OK, you would have to know what was showing and at what time, but anyone could, in theory, walk in off the street and see a film in this screen without p*ying, since it is on the floor below the foyer and you are supposed to go upstairs to p*y, then back down to see the film. No sign of any staff member at any stage.

I just LOVED this film, at first i thought it was going to be heavy but it soon lightened up. Alberto was brilliant but the other cast members were also superb. The deeper message was all too true in some communities in Scotland.

[spoiler]Great to see the turn around for Robbie as it really seemed hopeless at the start.[/spoiler]

Well worth a watch o/

Brilliant. REally enjoyed this. It was comedic and serious and just well done and thought through. Was initially shocked to see a girl I used to work with playing one of the defence lawyers at the start! She used to be a lawyer for real before giving it up for acting!
Braw fun as the Broons would say!

Such an awful wet and miserable day decided to use one of my vouchers to go and see this. Only myself and one other person at the screening.

Really enjoyed the film and had my foot tapping to the Proclaimers "Five Hundred Miles" as they sped along the scenic route to the distillery.

Been on several distillery tours over the country but never got a "tasting" as large as they got when they went on their first visit - always half a thimble full not half a glass!! :rolleyes:

Went to the Dominion to see this on monday with my Groupon vouchers. After all the hype thought it might be a disappointment but no a cracking film. Would happily watch it again and hubby loved it too, which says a lot.
