That looks amazing! If you miss the festival can you buy the films? The Last Great Climb and the french circus one look brilliant.

I am pretty sure most will be either freely available, or for sale as DVDs and streaming video at some stage, but it is on a film by film basis and they all do it differently.

Best of Kendal is a film tour which you can see at various places around the country and the rest of the World, although the list isn't complete yet and there are only 2 current UK dates.

In the first video (the official trailer), does anyone know what route the climber in yellow is on at 50 secs? Looks very familiar, was thinking SCnL in Glen Coe but can't quite match the background. Was also wondering if the footage was taken from the Hot Aches film, Distilled, which I'd be keen to see?

Have discovered the climber in question is Andy Cave (from the aforementioned Distilled) but no closer to knowing what route he's on.

Thanks Paul, I figured it was and when I googled it I saw the stills on your twitter and facebook pages. The footage of Andy on Stand and Deliver looks great btw, and I like that you seem to have captured the broad spectrum of routes and conditions that we have here in Scotland. It might have been more enjoyable to have filmed day after day under blue skies but it wouldn't have been a true picture of a Scottish winter! I think a lot of people will really enjoy this film. Cheers!

In reply to Red Rover: The french circus one is Petit Bus Rouge, a quick google brings up the site where you can buy it.
I'm psyched to see the Tim Carruthers film, what a legend!
