To celebrate the Home Entertainment release of the rousing feature-documentary 'Don’t Take Me Home', we have 3 DVD copies to giveaway.
An inspiring documentary from Welsh filmmaker JONNY OWEN (I BELIEVE IN MIRACLES) following Wales remarkable journey to the final stages of the 2016 European Championships.
Since 1958 Wales have tried and failed to qualify for a major football tournament. Having gone through the grief of previous manager Gary Speed’s tragic death, heavy defeats, and positioned as a tiny country team with no pedigree, all bets were off for how the underdogs would perform.
Led by star player Gareth Bale, the team quickly became the outside favourites,dazzling millions of viewers. There's an ancient Welsh saying, “Yma o Hyd” which translates as, “we're still here” – a defiantly apt statement from the smallest country in the history of the game getting to a major tournaments semi finals.
Don’t Take Me Home tells the story of that journey, how Wales shook the footballing world to its very foundations, beating tournament favorites Belgium to the reach the semi-finals – focusing on the players, managers and supporters Don’t Take Me Home is available to own on DVD and Blu-ray on 3 rd July 2017.
To be in with a chance of winning simply answer the following question:
How long did it take Wales to qualify for the Euros after their last World Cup finals appearance?
A) 48 years
B) 58 years
C) 38 years

I suspect your name won't appear out of the hat Pearcey.
^ This.
Take it all back Pearcey. Thought we were supposed to email like.

Quite sure Uruguay was a lot smaller in the 30s than we are now. Less than 2m.
40 years, and not 60 as many people think
Too late Baloo. You are in my bad books now young man
60 years
Right. I've edited the original. I originally used the copy sent by the promoter.
It should now make more sense. So please feel free to guess again.
Now my reply looks insane
Booooo! What about 1976 Mike? We reached the quarter finals.
58 years based on the options you have given us.
This is insane
I was the first to decipher the original code so I should win
omgs
We did not qualify for the 4 team "tournament" in 1976.
I know but we were the only British side to qualify for the quarter finals and that in itself was a success
58 then
Competition closing later today. Final reminder for guesses.
58
Worth a go as I haven't seen it - 58.
Is the answer 57?
I'm going to round it up to 58.
