Free "Song For A Raggy Boy" DVD

Spocker

From the CD that came free with yesterdays Sunday Times, sponsored by Xtra-Vision.

Print out the form from the link below (you had to insert the CD & see the Xtra-Vision logo before you could do it on the CD), fill in the details and send it to the following address:

Song For A Raggy Boy Offer
Xtra-Vision Support Office
Greenhills Park
Greenhills Road
Tallaght
Dublin 24

Apparently you'll be sent the DVD within 28 days. (if you do get it post back here and let everyone know)

Just a thought: if some other movie had won the award would that have been the one given away....?

If a mod could see their way to attaching the PDF to this thread (file is too big for upload - 150.2K) I'd be grateful as the geocities cap will probably kick in fairly quickly

[EDIT]Forgot to mention that forms have to be in before last post, November 30th 2004[/EDIT]

They filmed some of it in my town (Macroom). Never saw it though, maybe the only person who hasn't
Strange little side note, the chest of draws in my room came out of the school it was filmed in. Dunno how the **** the mother knows that...

Do you send away the form in a normal sized envelope?
Do you have to send stamps inside the envelope as well?(for them to send you back the DVD)

(you had to insert the CD & see the Xtra-Vision logo before you could do it on the CD)

What does that mean?

Thanks

I know, we'll have to wait and see what comes in the post..... I never got the ones from Play.com/The Sun but others have posted that they did...

Yup. I just printed off the form, filled it out and sent it off. There was no mention of sending another envelope or stamps/money for them to send it back.

I remember reading somewhere once before that only about 5% of people who actually see the ad will reply to it so there is a very small number who will actually look for the DVD (except for those who read the boards of course )

Its to make you watch the "ad" - in Xtra Visions case it was just the logo, but some other sponsers of The Month CD go to great lengths to create a flashy ad you have to watch - I remember Ford had one a couple of months back that was about a minute long - you had to watch it before you could access the content on the disc!

I rented it out when it came out first and thought it was excellent, but thats just my opinion

Thanks Dr Spock. I like free stuff.

huh!

Thanks Spock, giving it a try anyway.

Sleepy

Cheers Spock! Sent off for that

buddy

I'll send off also

The film is very good, can be disturbing - similar to telling the story of The Magdalene Sisters - this time its to do with church run schools for child offenders.
