== Itinerary Template ==
 
[[:User:ClarityFiendClarityfiend]] has removed the table showing the 'Itinerary of Miss Webster's Journey to Isle of Kiloran' on the grounds that "that level of detail is only suitable for a bus or train route". I would suggest that in the context of this section it is appropriate, because the 'Itinerary' is a central plot device in the film. It is featured prominently on screen, (where the details of the table are taken from) and in voiceover, during her train journey; it also features in the scene at Port Erraig quay when Miss Webster is waiting to be met by the motor launch from Kiloran, where it is blown from her hands into the sea to symbolise the frustration of her carefully planned future. Significantly, the whole of the 'Itinerary' is factual, referring to real places, stations, and services (even the name of the ferry to Tobermory is accurate), right up until the last entry where the fictional Port Erraig and Kiloran, are substituted for the real-life Carsaig and Colonsay. This is also symbolic of the transition from the 'real' world into the romantic fantasy of the rest of the film. So I would argue that including the 'Itinerary' as a table to illustrate the plot section is appropriate and aids understanding of the film.
