Om denne film

What We Did On Our Holiday is a hilarious journey through an unforgettable family holiday as a couple attempt to keep their impending divorce secret from their extended family. Doug and Abi and their three children travel to the Scottish Highlands for Doug’s father Gordie’s birthday party, where it’s soon clear that when it comes to keeping their secret under wraps, their children are their biggest liability. From nine-year-old Lottie’s notebook to keep track of the lies so she remembers which ones to tell, to four-year-old Jess’s perverse attachment to a brick named Norman signalling her maladjustment a mile off, the parents are kept on tenterhooks and a week has never seemed such a long time. But it’s middle child Mickey and his granddad’s shared passion for Vikings which gives rise to the most far-reaching and unexpected consequences, when a day at the beach turns to tragedy and the children take matters into their own hands. Written and Directed by Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin (creators of the BBC hit series Outnumbered). Starring Rosamund Pike, David Tennant, Ben Miller, Amelia Bullmore and Billy Connolly. - 2014 ORIGIN PICTURES (OUR HOLIDAY) LIMITED / BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION

This is a great film, similar to Notting Hill, 4 Weddings etc. Great cast, lovely location. Billy Connolly is perfectly cast. Makes you think about what's really important in life!

Really enjoyed. Reminded me of the kind of thing Iain Banks used to write. Cast are brilliant. Favourite moment has to be the kids confession of what happened to grandad...hilarious!

This is a funny film. It's children being typical children, too inquisitive and has to know. Billy Connolly plays his part magnificently. This trip changes every ones life. A really funny story
