My Summer with Des (1998 TV Movie)
Beautifully evocative
6 May 2002
I remember watching this in the excitement of the run up to France '98. I remember little of the plot (some vague memory of a girl, the Holland match, a garden party) except, of course, the match structure. But I do remember enjoying it. Moreover, I remember how it perfectly captured the excitment and hope of Euro '96. I was watching this and almost forgetting how it would inevitably end. I genuinely believed England were going to go all the way despite that niggling memory in the back of my mind.

Definately worth checking out if you can, particularly if England's approaching another major tournament :0)
