If you haven’t got a copy yet, why not?

If you didn’t get to see the film at the cinema when it was released in April, you may want to watch the DVD. From the pen of Richard “Four Weddings” / “Notting Hill” / “Love Actually” Curtis, this BritCom is set aboard the floating pirate radio ship “Rock Radio”.

Our Carl and Pete love it – Pete saw it 3 times, apparently, and the film gets top marks from FrequencyCast.

The DVD is out today – available from Amazon or with free delivery from Play.com

“The Boat That Rocked” is a comedy film based on a 1960′s pirate radio station ship moored off the UK coast.

The film’s from the makers of Four Weddings, Notting Hill and Love Actually, with an all-star cast, and if the trailer’s anything to go by, this could be a top film. The radio station’s called Radio Rock, and is a clear hat-doff to Radio Caroline and the good ships Ross Revenge and Mi Amigo.

You’ll find the FrequencyCast boys in the front row at a cinemaplex near you in May 2009. While you’re waiting, check out the movie preview… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnQc3lO4JDs
