Room Service

Charles Spooner runs the kitchens at the renowned Prince Henry Hotel, unfortunately things don't always run to plan, chaos often ensues.

If anyone were to mention a seventies sitcom set in a Hotel, you'd think of Fawlty Towers, nobody would think of room service.

Not as bad as some would say, I've definitely seen a lot worse, but definitely not the quality one would expect from the legendary Jimmy Perry, it's not in the same league as Are you being served, Dad's Army or you rang m'Lord.

One or two episodes are amusing enough, unfortunately some of them are very poor, and simply not funny. Some of the jokes land, some don't, it does get repetitive.

Of its time as you'd expect, so there's oodles of racism, sexism, time and Motion studies etc.

The Peter Sallis episode, where they think he's a killer was definitely the best of the lot, it was pretty funny.

Sadly it's forgettable.

5/10.
