I loved this comedy when i saw it in 1996-1997. Have never seen it repeated since anywhere on TV which is a shame as my VHS copy has almost worn out. So many sub plots which all seem to gel plus one-liners and visual jokes add to the appeal of this one off "dromedy". Fantastic setting as well ( around Fowey in Cornwall i seem to remember).Surely it will be shown again on TV somewhere or even made available to purchase commercially. No need to give any comments on the plot(s) as they have been admirably covered elsewhere.The casting was inspired with some top-notch actors coming together to keep it flowing. Its great,i loved it and cant wait to see it again, as you may have guessed!.

I have Just watched it, really enjoyed it although i did guess the ending about half way through as the wife would confirm so it was a spoiler for her!!. It HAD to be good,i mean Paul McGann , Mark Benton & Sarah Parish in the cast to me means good. Won't comment on the plot as don't want to spoil it for anybody waiting to see it but i did stay with it for two hours, saving calls of nature for the commercial breaks which to me is a sign that i was hooked.It clashed with a BBC extravaganza about Krakatoa which is right up my street but i chose to record that and watch at a later date so i had an instinct that this was worth watching "live". I wasn't wrong, i.m.h.o.
