Lives Less Ordinary: Ian Shaw - directed by Mike Christie

Uploaded by MikeChristie on Apr 9, 2008
I uploaded the intro to this documentary previously, and had some requests to upload the whole documentary, so here it is.
As I say elsewhere, this documentary - about Ian Shaw, an amazing man - was made in 18 days start to finish, late 2001. Shot in Canada, it remains one of my own favourite docs. It also heavily influenced one of my latest docs 'I Can't Believe I'm Telling You This' (more soon on that one).
Presented by Kirsty Wark.

A wonderful documentary on a wonderful man.I was very touched by the Swissair incident,and knowing how Ian Shaw dealed with that tragedy still gives me important lessons on how important love and life are. Mr.Shaw sold the restaurant and reunited with his family in Spain;hope they'll finally find their peace,like their beloved Stephanie.

I took a Swissair flight from Jakarta to Zurich a month before the crash of SR 111. We could not watch any in flight movies because the entertainment system was overheating. I had always wondered if this was the same flight that crashed a month later. Both flights were a MD-11 aircraft and I wonder if this information ever surfaced during the investigation?

Why does my comment about the missing sound keep disappearing?

i don't know. I haven't removed them.
It's a big shame the audio for this has been disabled as it's one of my favourite films of mine, but such is the nature of copyright audio.
