Rugby fans in for a treat with Building Jerusalem
Though we'll all be right behind the men in green next month, even the most hardened of Irish supporters would have to doff their hat to the English team that triumphed at the Rugby World Cup in 2003.
Building Jerusalem is the latest project which sees Polar Patrol Publishing - the company set up by the Snow Patrol boys - looking after the musical side of things. It maintains a sporting theme that began with their involvement in the Northern Irish soccer saga Shooting For Socrates.
This time around, it's the story of Jonny, Sir Clive and co. triumphing in Australia in the most dramatic of circumstances; like we say, we'd rather it be Johnny, St Joe and the lads, but perhaps that's a film for after this year's tournament!
Teenage Fanclub's Francis MacDonald produced an entirely original score for the film, while other music featured includes The Libertines and Manic Street Preachers.
