A little birdie has told me that a cheap alternative to filmglaze stuff is to buy a big roll of catering clingfilm and some double sided tape.
Is this an urban myth or no?

Anything like this will work.
Clarity, and robustness may vary though.

No, it's a thin plastic film often used for packing food

You can get plastic heat shrink film which you attach with double sided
tape and then shrink with a hair dryer so it is nice and taught.

Wickes, next to the draught excluder strip - another thing I noticed
yesterday! I *think* it's 6 sq. m. for £5.99 - I didn't buy any, so I
don't know the exact size. There seems to be a roll of 10mm wide tape
in the package.

We (uk.d-i-y) pretty much agreed agreed that Polycell stopped making /
B&Q stopped stocking it several years ago.

Saw some in Focus recently. I think it was the same as the pack I have in
the cupboard, which is by Stormguard
