Are You Being Served? ** (1977, John Inman, Mollie Sugden, Frank Thornton, Trevor Bannister, Wendy Richard) – Classic Movie Review 9821
Director Bob Kellett’s relatively harmless 1977 British comedy Are You Being Served? is the big-screen spinoff from the much-loved long-running BBC TV series as the staff of the London Grace Brothers department store flies off […]
Old Bones of the River **** (1938, Will Hay, Moore Marriott, Graham Moffatt) – Classic Movie Review 5824
Director Marcel Varnel’s 1938 British vintage comedy is wicked fun with Will Hay and his cronies Moore Marriott and Graham Moffatt trying to spread knowledge among African natives. Marriott Edgar, Val Guest and J O C […]

Jonny Owen writes and stars in this slightly quirky, slightly funny, very old-fashioned comedy look at the British music scene. He plays, rather likeably, a loveable loser called Dixie, up in London from the sticks, who […]
Genevieve ***** (1953, John Gregson, Dinah Sheridan, Kenneth More, Kay Kendall) – Classic Movie Review 187
The beloved 1953 film comedy Genevieve is a glorious highlight of Fifties British cinema and a guaranteed feel-good film and rib-tickler. An all-time-great, it won the 1954 Bafta award for Best British Film. ‘Ambrose only […]
