Trivia

Although Timothy Spall and Imelda Staunton had both appeared in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (2010), they shared no scenes together in both movies so this was their first real acting collaboration. In the 1970s, they attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) together.

Goofs

Sandra and Charlie exit Leicester Square station and immediately come across the Christmas lights in Regent Street, half a mile away.

Then they turn the corner and arrive at Ed's diner in Soho, which is also half a mile away in real life.

Then after they turn the corner from Chinatown, they arrive at Charlie's van in Drury Lane, which is also half a mile away.

User Reviews

VERY FUNNY, VERY MOVING AND VERY UPLIFTING!

Watched this absolute gem of a film at the Telegraph's special screening at the Vue cinema in London's West End last night. I went with my friend who is much older than I am and is much nearer in age to the target demographic but I will certainly be recommending it to my friends as I came away feeling that age had nothing to do with it. It was about tacking life's issues with courage, humour and strength, no matter how old you are. Haven't laughed and cried in a cinema like that for years and looking around at the end when the lights came up I definitely wasn't the only audience member. I'm probably not going to go out and join a dance class but I will remember Sandra and Bif's sense of humour and spirit for a very long time.
