It was released in the cinemas a couple of months back actually. I think it was intended just to be an ITV Drama Premiere, but somehow became a movie instead!

FILM: Driving Lessons
Sunday 17th December 2006 21:00 to 23:00 ITV1

Julie Walters and Rupert Grint star in this drama about how a downtrodden schoolboy's life is changed forever when he takes an unconventional summer job. Ben's school holidays are conservative and traditional, filled with Bible classes with his vicar father, driving lessons with his overbearing mother and helping out at an old people's home. They become a whole lot more exciting though when he takes a job with Evie, a retired actress who whisks him away on a series of adventures and challenges the very idea of who he wants to be.
