For years I have been searching to find this movie and yesterday it popped up in my feed for Amazon prime.
Plot
In a bizarre piece of fandom the original characters of a fictional 60s tv show meet to talk about old times. To revel in their former glories. Much like conventions for SF shows of the past. The show which should have been made is like Department S meets Time Tunnel meets Journey to the Unknown.
Thoughts. I absolutely loved it. The PC pap with terrible stories that passes for British movies/tv series made me hunger for the 60s or 70s shows. You know that it is all going to go terribly wrong in some way but you do not know how. What is great about this movie, is the sheer venomous hatred the cast seem to have for each other. The way they love getting one over on their fellow cast is just amazing. I thought I was going to do myself an injury I was laughing so much.
After watching it. I went on the hunt for Alan Strange. Unfortunately it is fiction but I want to see that tv series. I loved it.
