5.0 out of 5 stars 'The Flying Scot' is superb!, 26 Sep 2003
By A Customer
I've just watched a copy of a new dvd called 'The Flying Scot'
about the life and times of Sir Jackie Stewart and I have to say it's one of the most enjoyable 90 minutes I've spent in front of the tele in a long time. I've never been much of a fan of motor racing before, but this film transcends sport in many ways. It's filled full of superb anecdotes and has a depth of emotion I hadn't expected. Certainly Jackie Stewart has been a national icon for us Scots for a long time, but there is material here - especially his relationships with Ken Tyrrell and driver Francois Cervert - that increased - and cemented my ever lasting respect for the man. Heady words indeed, but well earned over a lifetime of incredible achievment. If only all documentaries were capable of leaving one with such a feeling of wonder? The Flying Scot is such a film and one that I could honestly say is a 'must see'.

5.0 out of 5 stars First class film about a first class man, 20 April 2009
By DudleyH (West Mids United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Anyone who has had the pleasure of actually meeting Sir Jackie Stewart will surely have been impressed.

Stewart is one of the world's most articulate, charming individuals with genuine integrity and a positive attitude to all aspects of life.

This film presents a well balanced view of Jackie Stewart including the heart rending time he spent in Formula One losing many of his friends at a time when driver safety was a low priority or even frowned upon. The death of Francois Cevert, his team mate at Tyrell brought Stewarts racing career to an early end after just 99 Grand Prix. These 99 races brought him three world championships whilst racing against legends such as Graham Hill and Emerson Fittipaldi.

Not overly long and told with intimacy (the film was made by Stewarts youngest son) it includes recollections from family and friends including the late, great Ken Tyrell as well as Sir Jackie himself.

Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably the Best F1 DVD Around, 19 Mar 2007
By Geoffrey Millar (Brunswick Australia) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This is an excellent documentary which outlines the career and life of Jackie Stewart through contemporary and rare footage, interviews then and now.

Jackie, now Sir Jackie, was of course a three time world champion in an era where the racing was much closer and the cars and circuits far less safe than today.

The most striking thing about the DVD is Jackie's humanity and humility, and the sadness with which he and his wife recount the loss of
Francois Cevert, Jackie's team mate and friend. Jackie's fight for circuit safety is well covered, too.

Audio and video quality is very good and the opening lap of Monaco, set to the music of Pink Floyd and filmed from (his?) racing car, really sets the scene for the DVD
