Video: Michael Owen takes you on a tour of Dubai in his chopper

Just be grateful you didn’t have to pay

Here is Little Mickey Owen dressed up in his finest pilot’s gear to show you around Dubai from the air. That is assuming his wooden introduction hasn’t put you to sleep before the chopper is even off the ground. You can tell Owen really got involved with the role and is said to have employed method acting to improve his performance. The methods included watching paint dry, staring for hours at a plank of wood and watching Saturday’s Bolton-Villa game.

Please fasten your safety belts – we’re about to take off.
