Whilst not knowing Waugh's 1928 novel we enjoyed James Wood's adaptation, which has a welcome contemporary streak about it (Wood wrote Rev). Jack Whitehall manages to hold it together - mainly very good - and supporting cast is fun - Stephen Graham, Douglas Hodge, Oscar Kennedy (the son, who'll go far), Eva Longoria, David Suchet. Tim Fleming shot it.
We particularly liked the way characters kept popping up in different situations.
