  • IMDB Review John (opsbooks)
    For anyone who likes classic Brit sitcoms of the 'As Time Goes By' type, this movie will leave you with lots of laughs and a feeling of bonhomie.
    The larger than life James Robertson Justice, better known to fans of the 'Doctor' series of Richard Gordon book-derived movies, is always worth watching. He is one actor whose presence can keep a movie afloat no mater how bad the supporting cast. In this movie, he is ably supported by an excellent cast of English comedians, including the great Hugh Lloyd, Leslie Phillips, Ronnie Barker and so on.

    A brilliant comedy featuring the irrepressible James Robertson Justice who is superb as the interfering father. JRJ was a wonderful character actor who lifted any film he starred in. The nearest we have to him today is I suppose Brian Blessed. The way he smacks Leslie Phillips' bottom every morning made me laugh out loud.....or LOL as you young people say!

    • @Embracing01
      @Embracing01 Рік тому

      I don't think it's considered a followup or "sequel" because they are not playing the same characters as in the Fast Lady as they have different names, though they are playing similar characters, so it's not a sequel really just a different film. If they made something like this today I think a good choice of actor to fit James Robertson Justice's character he so often played would be Rupert Vansitart who played Lord Ashfordley in Heartbeat.

    This is a great comedy, but the fire itself is extremely eerie. Fuseboxes like those often didn't work properly; no trip-switches; and the guy was only doing a moderate overloading-the-circuit job (the father's meddling didn't help). When the cable bursts aflame, it's shocking! Fire in a country cottage is nasty and ghostly. But the old fart's interfering in that ramshackle, haunted house - funny as heck. Bet he ate Patum Pepperium.
