I watched "Its a Wonderful Life" today. Brilliant film, but am I the only one that thinks Pottersville looks a bit more exciting than Bedford Falls?

I forgot about braveheart. How could I forget it. I watched it in the cinema in newry. When the Irish soldiers were sent out to face the Scots and then joined them everyone in the cinema started cheering. It was a fantastic moment. Brilliant.

My brother told me he once went to the Grand Opera House to see Juno and the Paycock. A provo character walked on to the stage and two boys in the audience stood up and saluted.

Hang on, you're denying the legitimacy of the Provo claim to be a lineal continuation of the IRA?
