The worst most wooden acting since the Woodentops. What on earth is that terrible accent the leading man affecting. Someone has already likened it to Harry and Paul do the 1940s from the Fast Show ,which would have more credibility. Every time he opens his mouth I'm so irritated by his accent I can't concentrate on where the story is going. Then there's the creepy "Allo allo stereotypical German " . The younger brother "with problems". It's an endless catalogue of characters who telegraph their stories with in 5 minutes of opening their mouths. Mmmmm blackshirts and a disinhibited younger brother what could possibly happen next..... Of course the women are so much more complex, no sorry I'm lying. It's incredibly sad that all the sets costumes and hard work of the rest of the team come to nought with appalling acting, direction and at the end of the day a pretty threadbare story. What a stinker!!!!!
