I booked my tickets online to see this movie in Norwich, I am biased a little as i live not to far from the film location. From the beginning i enjoyed the mood of this story. Actors and actresses all well known to British TV viewers were top class. The location was used perfectly. What a lovely film i heard from most of the cinema audience as they left the auditorium. I enjoyed all aspects of this movie. The story of the end of the pier theatre is not an easy subject but good writing and perfect editing gave it the edge it needed. Not forgetting the plot, what a imaginative script. Alma Cogan, who would have thought that her name would rise again. Such a good evening. Still singing her songs now,

Not going to say to many things about this film, it would offend the past excellent work of the directors and production staff. I expected so much more. It just didn't do it for me. What the hell was it all about. Bits of other films all jumbled up. It even had the next generation of kids from the first films, you know, the one where they fell down a hole and ET it was not. I have a suspicion it was conceived over a bottle of bubbly on a large directors boat in Monaco. I can hear the glasses clinking as i watched it. On the positive side i stayed awake. I feel that the film will be seen by most people and 25 percent will take it on the nose as a decent attempt to keep ET alive. Most i expect will forget it.
