Apparently there will be not one but two TT films being made over the next few months.

!/ The real Hailwood Story with actors and not Duke Videos

2/ A film about an Americans attempt at the TT..

(This second one was originally to be a story about Joey Dunlop but someone saw there would be a Hailwood film so the "star" has been americanised.

As a long time fan of the TT, I am one who hopes that these films will stay within the boundaries of good taste..

Who will oversee the sensibility, accuracy and check the scripts ????

There is always a tendancy to digitalise crashem and bashem sequences in films these days and it can do more to destroy the sport than make it something to interest people.

Only an observation and I would like to be first in the queue to see Mikes life story if it stays on truthful, sensible lines....... ........
