Remake wasn't as bad as I was expecting.
Don't get me wrong - the original cast are irreplaceable but this did have it's moments...the thing that ruins modern comedies for me is the audience laughter track - I couldn't tell whether this was filmed in front of an audience or not but it sounded fake.
Mrs Brown's boys gets it right so why can't other comedies?
Plus Matthew Horne should've played Mr Lucas in this as he does have a slight resemblance to Trevor Bannister.
