    • Crazy credits
      The cast list in the closing credits gave the actors' names followed by the character name, which led to multiple actors being listed, *followed by* a single role, for the Cubs.

    Poor
    The film has a reasonably good idea to start with but it goes on and on AND ON. Far too long and it is too daft. Felt like I was watching it forever, a shame as Eric Sykes is a comedy legend.
