Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Classic film that should be revered for all time as a must see comedy event! I thought this television movie was excellent and I laughed at it throughout the entire film. Without seeing this film I would have never known true comic genius in itself. 8 out of 10 for being a little short Must I say it again......................................... I think I must! This film is comic legend. I loved it. I taped it and watch it every day because it is so darn good! I am an aspiring comic and I must say I totally dig this film and every time I go on stage I think about it and I say that I want to be funny like that movie. I loved it

This one-off was shown on ITV in 1991, and by different writers, then the original Talbot Rothwell & Sid Colin. In my opinion a brilliant come-back for Howerd, with a new cast, and funny script. This could have seen a good return as a series on ITV, although Howerds own death in 1992 limited this. The cast in this one-off feature some regulars from other sitcoms from the 1970's including Roy Evans who now stars in Eastenders. The set was more like a theatre than a TV set, no reality at all which, was actually quite a good move. In summing up they successfully bought a true classic back to life with Further Up Pompeii. It's well worth watching at least 2.
