A really good Brit Film

I am a big Gervais/Merchant fan, so I started out biased. However, I had also read film critics reviews of the film, which were not that favourable.

This is a film for people who remember growing up in England in the 70's, and is still relevant for kids growing up today.

It is not depressing, it is a stark reminder of how things used to be for the working classes. It contains plenty of humour and hope.

Gervais has a very small acting role in the film, but when he does appear, he is very 'Gervais'.

Merchant has a cameo role. Again he is funny, you will have to giggle.

I don't want to give the plot away, don't expect loads of laughs, it is humorous, in a nice cosy British film kind of a way.

Give it a go.
