Synopsis

A unique film that follows Jim Davidson, one of this country s foremost entertainers, to a dot in the South Atlantic which, two and a half years prior, was the scene of conflict.

SATURDAY 22nd SEPTEMBER: Port Stanley - another portacabin. The concert is held in a Coastal (floating barracks). Our little concert party is tremendous... WEDNESSDAY 26th SEPTEMBER: Chopper to Byron Heights; the pilot nearly couldn't find the top in all the mist... FRIDAY 28th SEPTEMBER: The inevitable helicopter to Goose Green, the most emotive concert we do. Jim's energy after so many long concerts is almost bionic... SATURDAY 29th SEPTEMBER: Back to Stanley - and home.
