I think not !!!
11 October 2000 | by (London) – See all my reviews

Very weak British comedy. Reg Varney acts well to hold together this flimsy and to be quite frank quite uninspiring tale about a failed drag-act comedian who suffers illusions of grandeur. This film tries to mix drama with comedy and unfortunately fails to do either with much success.
