Featured review
Disappointing
Jack Rosenthal was one of the great tv writers of the 20th century.This however is a sad letdown.Even ignoring the very dated aspect of the film,there are few amusing moments and the film drags on interminably.This is the film spin off from a tv series,and it just doesn't work.After all if they had gone to bed with each other in the first reel there would be no story.The only plus is the fine performance of Richard Beckinsale
