British humour.... You find the jokes yourself, they aren’t set up for 20 minutes before, then signposted by canned laughter and then immediately repeated to ensure they’ve sunk in. British shows aren’t punctuated by celebrity walk ons, to rapturous grovelling applause. We rarely break the 4th wall like that, and don’t worship celebrities like that If this were made now, the cast would have to be ‘diverse’ with the BAME characters getting all the funny lines, whilst being the most cultured and sophisticated as well. Daniel, Clive and his family would not be played by white actors that’s certain.
'A bottle of Sherry & Fruit n Nut? You coud've got that in ASDA' ..Oh my god, that cracked me up! Brilliant programme, love Martin Clunes & Ben Whishaw especially.
I worked inside the homes of what they call aspirational working class & lower middle class folk in southern England for 40 years & can say with confidence that this movie is pretty accurate & they only manage having fun when getting pissed or by mistake but somewhere beneath the shiny surface they’re actually ok - it’s just how the stiff upper lip / keeping up appearances thing is still very important . 👍
What a great film. Nothing over blown, no special effects,no big bucks stars,and yet it kept me entertained for an hour and a half. What more could you want. Took me a while to work out where I'd seen her before but Clair Skinner plays the wife/mother in Outnumbered.
+Mysterious Squirrel Also in Trevor's World of Sport, where she was Neal Pearson's twit of a wife. She was also a serial killer, or at least a murderer, in (I think) Inspector Lewis. An exceptionally pretty woman who likes to play more than pretty characters.
The thing is with the invention of the smartphone , you can now go to booze cruise "cast and find out exactly who they are , through the power of the internet and click onto Wikipedia for the individual characters 🏴
I wonder how many people that didn't like this film are under 35? Back in the good old days, before people left independent thought in the birth canal, you had to work out the humour in a film. We didn't need the jokes or the humour to hit us in the face with a wet trout or they'd just pass us by. To us, obvious humour designed for the stupid is boring. We even had adverts where the brand being advertised wasn't even mentioned, imagine that, we had to work it out!!!
Actually brilliant,enjoyed the film allot, will watch the other two. Thanks for loading. As we pain in the butt Yankees say about British humor...'you either get it or you don't'. Great cast, nicely done.
@@hensonlaura Hey, no just a pun on myself and my British friends, like eating with a fork with your right hand or iced tea. :-) going to a Pub or café with friends, usually near Sandwich, which we/family came from in 1935 on the HMS Hercules. Love ordering ice for my tea. Take my knife in my right hand, fork in left, cut, then put down my knife and eat with my right hand and fork. Friends love it as a few to maybe 3 dozen local Brits watch me and my lady eat every bite. hahhahha Then there is breakfast, we order a smoothie or glass of milk for our protein powder and supplement pills. Friends usually all have a solid English breakfast. Fun stuff and friends. Be well.
Loved this. Plus nostalgia. From 1969 til 1987 , my family, plus our friends, used to get the Dover to Calais ferry every summer to drive to Spain, and once, just France. We always had "interesting" time too. Evokes happy memories. Thank you for uploading.
Brilliantly done!!! - Laughed close to stomach-cramps!!! - And that _beautiful_ ''French'' girl 'Juliette though, I _totally_ got Daniel! . . . . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Eric Kamov - Are you serious?? Which bit did you laugh at? I have lasted 39 minutes and I can't take anymore of it. It is about as funny as getting kicked full on in the bollocks and then poked in the eye. I don't believe you laughed at any of this!
I love all the characters in this. Ben Wishaw did a cracking John Keats in Bright Star. He looks really gorgeous in that but in this.. hmm no. Ha. Fabulous actor though. Im surprised Anne reid didnt have the affair, she normally does 😂😂😂
@William Gruff Sorry William; on my screen the words 'highlighted reply' was positioned directly between your comment and my previous one. I mistakenly concluded that your comment was addressed to me. Please accept my apology, and thanks for pointing out my error to me so that I will be more careful in future. God bless you.
Now 🤠that was certainly a treat that I definitely enjoyed LOL 🤣oh yes! my gosh it was a trip and a half. All perfect separate stories on the husbands and stories on the wives then the newlyweds, 🤪it all fell into perfect pieces, along with the awesome acting ha ha ha ha ha ha must watch again and I will definitely share ✌🏼 thumbs up for the upload thanks to Norah. 👍🏼👍🏼💐
Absolutely Bloody Fantastic. Rob hilarious , Maurice with a MK. 2 Bren . A very good Machine Gun. And Chloe caught bonking the photographer. Music Great. Well done Grace, 'TIMBER'.
ONE OF THE BEST ITV COMEDY SKETCH T V SHOWS I HAVE SEEN A GROUP OF MEN WHO GO ON A JOLLY TO CALAIS WHO LIBE ON THE SAME ESTATES WHO HAVE A DAY OUT AND HATE EACH OTHERS CUTS SO SO HILARIOUS
I loved it when they sung I am going on a Summer Holiday, as that was the time when i was seeing the movie , i thought i will emigrate to Australia to see the sun , as i did seethe sun in Cyprus between1959-60 few years earlier being in the Royal Signals at Episkopi Garrison , so here we are in 2020 still seeing the sun in Redcliffe Queensland . Duncan Pitkeathly .
Yes I met a girl from Rouen france in Cornwall hitch hiking in 1978 who looked just like her. Beautiful, but, well she was a really hot girl in a tent and on the floor of our dining room. Loved her even though I got a dose of the clap and some worts on my dick from her. All cured after a few weeks, such was life in the seventies.
Going to watch this tomorrow morning as we are going to close up in about 45 mins. Looking at the cast I think it is going to be hugely enjoyable. Cannot beat the English for a film about a no doubt legendary Booze up cruise.
I crossed over dover calais every night for my job , six night a week for a year i got 40 cartens lambert a buttler each crossing , I paid £18 a carton then sold them for £30 a carton .so do the maths its was a good wage , lots were doing it . 40 cartons x£30 X6 Days X 52 weeks a year ,
I really didnt like the third one.. it had lost the ooomph. Also i think they should have made them all as booze cruises back to france but with the wives !! maybe end up staying there a week looking for Daniel!
For a low budget "working class" British movie, this one (of 3) is suitably silly, quirky and all round jolly good fun. Thanks to All. African colonies (Mzansi)
