Spin-off of TV show stars Richard O'Sullivan, Paula Wilcox, Sally Thomsett (who retired pretty much after the series finished in 1976), Brian Murphy and Yootha Joyce. It's very poor, really, but there are one or two jokes, the performances aren't too bad, and there's a hilarious cameo by Spike Milligan. Also an alarming driving scene in a yellow VW through Maida Vale.
Also featured: Doug Fisher, Peter Cellier (developer), Patrick Newell (politician), Arthur Lowe, Bill Maynard, Aubrey Morris (A Clockwork Orange).
The best bit is how clean and well organised the restaurant kitchen has become under O'Sullivan's tutelage.
It's no wonder the British film industry was having a hard time if they were expecting people to shell out bucks to go and see this sort of thing in a cinema.
