50 years on, Tommy needs no introduction; it was Ken Russell at his raucous best. It will be a joy to see Pete Townshend's characters on the big screen – Elton John's Pinball Wizard, Tina Turner's Acid Queen, Keith Moon's Uncle Ernie, Jack Nicholson's Specialist and of course, the incomparable Roger Daltry.
Tommy gained critical acclaim, too, with two Oscar nominations, a Golden Globe for Ann Margret alongside a nomination for Daltry as a debut actor.
Throw in the Borrowdale scenery and this will make for quite an afternoon!
