Public Service Obligation.

What used to be know as ‘lifeline’ flights, i.e essential flights to the remote and rural parts of Scotland where an aircraft service is more of an essential than a luxury. The goverment pays Loganair to operate PSO services in Scotland, I believe a similar concept applies to certain rural bus services around the country as well. ?

The afore mentioned Air Discount Scheme ties in with this and is a Scottish Government funded initiative whereby people who reside in said rural areas qualify for a heavily discounted ticket (50% I think ?) In order that the costs of essential trips to the mainland Glasgow/Edinburgh/Inverness etc can be borne more easily. It’s possible to fly to New York from Glasgow more cheaply than to fly just a few hundred miles to Stornoway, for example…

Thanks 😀

The English/US used blow up planes in the build up to d day(?) to fool the nazi’s about where they were going to cross the channel.

Sexy Beast

Ray Winstone, Ben Kingsley, Ian McShane and Amanda Redman.

Dark gangster comedy.

Ben Kingsley is class in it.

Sexy Beast is a funny and highly enjoyable crime movie punctuated by some blood curdling violence. The film was directed by Jonathen Glazer, who was responsible for most of the recent amazing Guinness beer adverts.

Ray Winstone is Gal, a retired criminal enjoying retirement in Spain with friends and the woman he loves. But this is shattered by the arrival of a menacing figure from his past in the shape of pyschotic Don Logan (played with evil intensity by Ben Kingsley). Don wants Gal for one last spectacular job and will do just about anything to get him, including threatening Gal’s beloved wife.

The story is told at a fast pace, with several surreal interludes but never loses momentum. Ray Winstone puts in another loveable badboy performance that he does so well, but the film is dominated by Kingsley who steals every scene he is in and creates one of the most menacing screen villains in recent memory. The brilliance of the film is that it manages to combine so many disparate elements (thriller, comedy, and a touching love story to say the least) into a cohesive and highly entertaining whole. A real pleasure to watch and a striking, brilliant debut.

Only scum do it out of choice.

I expect I did too, until I found or was told about using the search button before posting. Welcome to the Forum!
