Malham Tarn in JLS film

If you read our post from April you may remember JLS shot a short film sequence at Malham Tarn at the end of March. The footage that they shot was used in their film 'Eyes Wide Open.' Their film was in cinemas UK wide for just one day on the 3rd June. Did you manage to see Malham Tarn, when the group played football at the side of the lake?
