Must admit I looked at HMV when posting but as it was going to be more expensive than Amazon for non-prime members once you took the postage into account if ordering under £10 I decided not to add it to the post...not sure if it's the same price in-store though...would assume so but don't have an HMV in my area to check.

Yeah that's why I'd decided to delete my comment as it wasn't particularly helpful. It is however the same in store for those that still have a local :smiley:

Never heard of this before but reviews seem pretty positive might give it a go.

It was a great film. Already watched it twice. I do have a soft spot for films based on a true story.
If you enjoyed The Perfect Storm, you'll no doubt enjoy this. Some very good casting too.

Was going to delete my reply to your deleted comment when I found you'd posted the picture which is helpful as had no idea whether HMV had it instore as my local is 180 miles away so a bit far to go to check...lol...
