Wild Mountain Thyme

It’s a movie?!
I have just bought this book to read over Christmas (Rosamunde Pilcher) it’s mainly set in Scotland and looked just the sort of thing I enjoy reading.

I thought it was set in ireland? Just looked at a review.

The movie was written and directed by John Patrick Shanley- It's based on his play Outside Mullingar and takes place in Ireland- I had no idea it was a play when watching the movie but thought the kitchen conversations would be great scenes in a play! I cried every time they sang Wild Mountain Thyme- It's a heart warmer- It didn't receive good reviews but I enjoyed it very much and would watch it again-

The book by Rosamunde Pilcher ( Wild Mountain Thyme)
Is a different book completely, strange to have two with the same title ( even if one is a play.)

Oh this sounds good I adore that song.

I loved Rosamunde Pilcher books. Remember reading them years ago.

Me too AGA and the best is The Shell Seekers.?

Another Rosamunde Pilcher fan here. I seem to remember leaving my copy of the Shell Seekers in a book swap on a Greek island years ago so if anyone picked one up and read it on holiday it might have been mine.

Love Rosamunde Pilcher too. My favourite book is Winter Solstice, then September.
Anything about the Highlands, cosy kitchens and picnics on the hill can’t be bad!

Which channel is this on please?

I may be wrong, travelsafar, but I think this is a new film and not on TV yet.

When I was part of a folk singing trio, my least favourite song was Wild Mountain Thyme. It was the 2nd half of the first line that defeated me - Oh the Simmer time is comin and the Trees are sweetly bloomin. Bloomin was fine but for some unfathomable reason I could not get my tongue around "trees are sweetly", always came out as "Theresas weetly" Eventually, I just mimed these 3 words and no one seemed to notice.
