I had to see this film being a Yorkshire girl myself. The plot whilst well known to many was certainly enhanced by the spectacular Yorkshire country side and the fantastic cast. Helen Mirren added spice to the W.I and gave it's image a well needed boost. I laughed out loud to the many quips made and cried quietly during the scenes portraying the very life like images of a loved one suffering with cancer. My friends and I left the cinema feeling that we had had a truly worthwhile visit......we even stayed to read the credits as we reflected on what we had just seen. The tasteful bravery of these ladies must surely be an inspiration to all. The only downside were the scenes in Hollywood but thankfully these didn't last long.
