A comedy written by the man who created Fawlty Towers and directed by the man who gave us The Lavender Hill Mob.
I remember settling on Channel 4 when it was shown on Christmas Eve years ago- first time I'd seen it, I was 12, but I laughed so much at the steam-roller scene, I had tears in my eyes.
I love converting people who've never seen it.

I agree. I found this to be one of the best comedies ever made.

I haven't seen it. I will have to check it out. You will put it on my list.

I have indeed seen it unedited, just gets better every time. Check out Fierce Creatures if you haven't seen it, and while no Wanda, it's underrated and contains some brilliant farce.

I'm watching it right now on Starz. I hope you have seen it unedited. A good sign of a great comedy is if it can stand the test of time, this movie is just as hilarious as it was in 1988.
