Flying Scotsman...is it worth watching?

It looks like it is on several times over the next couple of weeks on cable.

Watch it. Any CF should find it worthwhile. Especially the depiction of old HV and his UCI stuffed shirts....

I liked it but you must be a cycling fan to enjoy/appreciate it I think.  I am not surprised that it didn't do better at the box office but there you have it.

Your a cycling fan. Worth it.  Smile

I enjoyed it.

I'd watch it.

Mrs. Bio enjoyed it and she tolerates cycling as opposed to being a fan. Cheap and cheerful UK production but that's part of the charm. We watched it in the cinema and I nearly expected the crowd to shout "He's behind you" every time the HV character appeared (presume you lived here long enough to understand a panto reference)

As a plus it's got got Brian Cox in support as the wise old head who's seen it all before - I presume Morgan Freeman wasn't available Wink

As a bonus plus he's managed by a hobbit for all the Frodo fans.

I watched it and liked it.

It is set to record tomorrow morning.

I thought I should report back.
I recorded 2 hours of blank screen, as it turned out I wasn't subscribed to the channel showing the flick. I didn't discover it until I played it back.  Any guesses how long I watched the blank screen waiting for the show to start?

2 hours plus the time it took for you to find the remote to turn it off.. Laughing
