Nuns on the Run (1990 Jonathan Lynn & scr)

Film 4 showing this as a tribute to Bobby Coltrane. He and Eric Idle are on the run from nasty gangsters and a Triad gang, take refuge as nuns; luckily Robbie knows something about the faith, and Idle's GF is short-sighted, allowing for identity cover ups. She, Camille Coduri, is very engaging and seemed oddly familiar, though the name isn't; lots on TV. Janet Suzman too.

It's pretty daft, of course, but fairly good-natured.

A Handmade Film. Lynn worked for ITV - Doctor and On the Buses series - then Yes Minister.
