Further Up Pompeii!

This one-off was shown on ITV in 1991, and by different writers, then the original Talbot Rothwell & Sid Colin. In my opinion a brilliant come-back for Howerd, with a new cast, and funny script. This could have seen a good return as a series on ITV, although Howerds own death in 1992 limited this. The cast in this one-off feature some regulars from other sitcoms from the 1970's including Roy Evans who now stars in Eastenders. The set was more like a theatre than a TV set, no reality at all which, was actually quite a good move. In summing up they successfully bought a true classic back to life with Further Up Pompeii. It's well worth watching at least 2.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Classic film that should be revered for all time as a must see comedy event! I thought this television movie was excellent and I laughed at it throughout the entire film. Without seeing this film I would have never known true comic genius in itself. 8 out of 10 for being a little short Must I say it again......................................... I think I must! This film is comic legend. I loved it. I taped it and watch it every day because it is so darn good! I am an aspiring comic and I must say I totally dig this film and every time I go on stage I think about it and I say that I want to be funny like that movie. I loved it
