An unusually touching story with twists - That Day We Sang review by CP Customer

Spoiler Alert
22/09/2015

At first we wondered how the story was going to be developed, and unfamiliar with the camera tricks and angles, as well as the quality of the acting/singing. But we soon warmed to the story, and the manner in which it is told, and settled down for the journey. Some twists took us by surprise, but the film has a satisfying ending.

We knew Michael Ball, having seen him live at a BBC studio presenting one of his shows, but not the female lead. She was very good, both singing voice and acting - very believable. And as a couple of 70+ year olds, the era the story covers was very familiar to us.
