cheesypeas

I was very highly involved in politics when I was younger, my youth gave me a confidence I would kill for now.

Talking back in a very public forum to a serving government Minister and telling him that with respect we had heard it all before and that quite frankly I found it patronising of him to come back and produce last years speech in a different set of clothes.

I could go on ............

So youth does actually give you a level of courage, that age and responsibility rob you of.

And she had even less to lose..................Fast Forward to their trip home, the tabloids would have destroyed her, so in essence she had nothing to lose.

Watchable, if unrealistic. Too many instances of "let's add a statistic". Clever but formulaic. Most touching scene "shall we hold hands (on the plane)" most relevant "every 3 seconds a child dies". Misery, comfort, the human condition...

Oh YES PLEASE Mrs Ramsey, that would be Fab!

Easy · 26/06/2005 17:55

I missed this cos the in-laws arrived just as it was starting, and I couldn't quickly find a blank tape.

Please PLEASE can anyone lend me a tape of it.

Tissy · 27/06/2005 09:06

can anyone help me? I videoed it, and watched it last night, but even though I recorded it with videoplus numbers, the end got cut off... just at the point where he rings her and says "turn your TV on..." what happened after that ?

LGJ · 27/06/2005 09:11

The PM came out and started a speech.........then it just faded and you were left not knowing which way it went.

Powerful stuff.

Marina · 27/06/2005 09:51

I'm glad I watched it for the message and I always enjoy seeing Penny Downie, the silver-tongued Anton Lesser and Kelly MacDonald.
I do find Richard Curtis a cliched, formulaic and sentimental writer normally, sorry. Can't stand his feature films. But I have a lot of respect for the way in which he is contributing so effectively to the Make Poverty History campaign and I salute him for that.
I always have my wristband on. As a supporter of Christian Aid and Oxfam I've been doing my bit this year and feel this is such a crucial campaign.

JoolsToo · 27/06/2005 09:52

sorry can't stand Bill Nighy and its Big Brother

JT [look of horror!]

JoolsToo · 27/06/2005 10:10

its another beautiful day in South Lakes - how about you?

Marina · 27/06/2005 10:14

Big Brother? You've lost me there JT?

anteater · 27/06/2005 10:23

JT, Extra hot up here!
In training for the fathers day race at school next week, got left at the start last year; 'on your marks, get set, looked round and the other buggxrs had gone!! Two were wearing SPIKES!!

JoolsToo · 27/06/2005 18:54

oh my! - there was an article in the paper this weekend how some schools have banned parents races - they were taking it too seriously - sounds like they got it right

spikes are no good for the sack race though eh?

Scaryfairy · 27/06/2005 21:28

Does anyone know if it is repeated apart from on RTE (as we don't get it) or could anyone lend me a tape? Everyone in work is talking about it and I missed it!!!

Easy · 28/06/2005 09:15

Still wondering if anyone can lend a tape of this to Me and Scary...

Scaryfairy · 28/06/2005 21:42

Anyone???? Please?????

MrsWednesday · 28/06/2005 22:23

I taped it and will be watching tomorrow so I will be able to send it on to you after that.

Just hope the video worked

Scaryfairy · 29/06/2005 00:02

Mrs W - Thanks very much. That would be wonderful. I think Easy is before me in the queue, though.

Thanks a lot.

Easy · 29/06/2005 12:21

I don't mind when I see it, just want to see it.

Scary- you first, then send it on to me, if Mrs Wednesday doesn't mind.

Scaryfairy · 29/06/2005 13:30

Thanks, Easy.

Mrs Wed, I'll cat you with my address, if you're sure.
