Do you mean to say you have actually had success at getting your film
hand checked at an airport in the UK ? 8-)
They were just the same at Heathrow in the early nineties. I had
film in canisters in my pocket, I asked for them to be hand
inspected, I even removed them from the canisters. They just put
them straight through the X-ray machine.

The best success I have had while traveling is to state that the
film I am carrying is "Professional film". When they see the Provia
name they always comply. Often even without seeing the name if I
say it is professional film (having the film in the Black OM 4T
helps too!
