Craig Ferguson himself is an alcoholic - he'd sobered up in 1992 - thus perhaps why it's a theme here in his and Philip McGrade's screenplay. (He later hosted
The Late Late Show for nine years.) A fun, warm-hearted film which does occasionally go too far (at finale, gay's ex lover has to have a timely appearance?)
Joss Ackland fun as old groover, Jemma Redgrave and Charlotte Church fine. With Stephen Noonan, Imelda Staunton, Ralph Brown, Ian McNeice, Anthony Head, Dominic Cooper in bit part.

The new song 'Would I Know?' Charlotte sings is rather good. It was composed by Diane Warren, and weirdly not released as a single.
The house is Dorney Court, Windsor. It's appeared in
A Man For All Seasons, The Missionary, Lock Stock, Elizabeth, Marple: The Body in the Library, The Invisible Woman, Bohemian Rhapsody and
the new
David Copperfield.
