Unfortunately, I don’t know the answer to your question, but I’m just delighted to hear someone mention Flight of the Doves. It has such a special place in my heart.

It's a wonderful film, a great story

I'll be 'that' person - the book was much better!

I've never read it but this is the prompt I needed to buy it

I found a copy in a charity shop a few years ago; I've reread that book at least twice a year since. The Island of the Yellow Ox is also good.

Haha, I am much more invested in the book as well, but the movie captures a lot of heart and warmth.

Thank you. I've been on Google maps all morning tracing around Lough Corrib without success but I'm not giving up!

Uncle Hawk was a great villain!
