Film: 'Blow Dry'

A bit belatedly, I know, but I've just noticed that the Alan Rickman comedy, 'Blow Dry', about 'the national hairdressing championship in Keighley', is being shown on BBC1 tonight at 11.30pm. As it was mentioned a while ago in some thread or other, I thought it might be of interest to some of you.

Not so for we follicle challenged, but thanks for the reminder !!



Years at KBGS e.g. 1958-1964 (optional) 1950/1955

Current location (optional) Keighley

Re: Film: 'Blow Dry'

Two reasons not to watch it.
1) Set in our fair town, but not filmed there.
2) If the critics are to be believed, it's rubbish, and a waste of an excellent cast.
Not Glusburn's favourite son Beaufoy's finest hour.
