My missus got this film out so we could "watch it together". It made my eyes bleed it was so dire. Oh, and James Bond really, REALLY shouldn't try to sing. Although I'm yet to meet a lass who doesn't love it with an almost religious passion. Maybe it's like…

Too true whitepocky - Platini still blames us as a nation for Heysel and it clouds his every dealing with the FA. Great player, bad president.

Er.... you don't get fired because the global economy has gone belly-up. You may get released, made redundant, let go or whatever your HR dept. decide to call it, but not fired. Who writes this stuff?

nandakandamanda - I too apologise for leaping to an assumption. It sounds like you speak with bitter experience. Re-reading your comments you probably have every right to feel let down by the present system.

Possibly you are right but "flying off the handle" is hardly a fair or accurate way to describe the debate currently taking place in the UK.

It is worth remembering that the Crown Prosecution Service hasn't brought charges against any of the many hundreds of UK citizens who made…

" has previously been shown on Canadian and Swiss TV and at numerous film festivals, where it provoked little controversy."

OK, fine. So what's so different about showing it in Britain?

Because it comes in the wake of the Daniel James case, a 23 year old paralysed rugby player who…

That's nine countries in the Americas and three US-influenced countries in East Asia.

Yes, correct.

Everyone has had at least one bad flight but over the course of 15 years flying 2 to 3 times a year in my opinion Virgin beats BA by a country mile. I'm yet to meet a frequent flyer who thinks any different.
