My DH and I have been enjoying watching the programme and have an 'ahhh' moment whenever we see the sea or palm trees. So, I was thinking I might surprise him with a Caribbean style evening. Luckily it turns out we have a takeaway locally that does the food so, any ideas on music or a film to watch/something to do? My imagination and Google aren't helping!

Thank you!

One of Sean Connery's James Bond films is set partly in Jamaica, can't remember which one. The one with Ursula Andress. Or Cool runnings? Obviously Reggae would be suitable. I'm not a Bob Marley fan but you might be. Or something like a Trojan collection. There was that film recently that got good reviews, Fire In Babylon but it is about cricket

All I can think of is South Pacific but I'm not sure that's really the same thing is it?

Cool Runnings, the film about the Jamaican bobsleigh team?

The documentary that came out about 15 months ago about Bob Marley? We really enjoyed that.

There is an Agatha Christie film set somewhere in the West Indies.

And maybe you need to google Calypso music rather than reggae?
