Thought some of you might be interested in this. On the 12-13th June in Leicester Square there is a “West End At War” weekend.
As part of this there will be screenings of “Battle Of Britain”, “A Bridge To Far” and other period films.
I don’t have all the details yet but I should find out at work tomorrow. I’ll post them when I do.

Oops!
PS. Never noticed until today. The contrail of a high flying jet during the ‘Battle of the Air’ 🙂 sequence.
…and on one wide-screen print, for one fleeting moment, the B-25 ‘Psychedelic monster’ camera ship passes across the left hand lower corner of the screen.

After many years of watching the film on the small screen, I finally saw the ‘Battle Of Britain’ as it should be seen. Forget the DVD get up to Leicester Square tomorrow morning, it could be a very long time before the film is shown again on a screen of this size.
There’s only one word for it Awesome.

The BoB film will be show at the Prince Charles cinema, 7 Leicester Square Place.

Thought I may drag this back to the front. Could be good for those of us that are too young to have seen it on screen first time round.
Is it the remastered version in DTS on show do you know?
