This was an entertaining and amusing little comedy. It was fairly well-written, except for cliched bad people here and there. The time shifts were also a little awkward at the beginning, but that cleared up after a bit. The cast included a half-dozen familiar British performers that I have seen i ... n previous tv shows. Pauline is a treasure and a pleasure to watch. I was wondering how they would come up with a satisfactory way of wrapping up the film, but they thought of a believable one that hadn’t occurred to me. If it weren’t for the cliched scenes and characters I would be willing to watch it again. As it is I didn’t regret the time spent on it.
