4.4 lbs in 2kg. So cooking time is around 90 mins

Phew, thanks, you've saved us from certain food poisoning or dried out chicken.

It is a good idea to leave it for 20 minutes after you take it out of the oven to rest. Basically cook it for 90 mins then take it out cover it in tinfoil and a couple of tea towels to keep it warm and then the flesh relaxes and it is easier to carve and suprisingly more succulent.
