Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAccording to Robert Webb in an interview with Graham Norton, he and Olivia Colman, who play a naturist couple, were told that they would be pixelated in the nude scenes, and the first time they found out they weren't was at a screening on the film. Webb recalled a moment when Jessica Hynes turned round and said "Oh-ho-ho" at him. Both Webb and Colman have since spoken negatively about their experiences of the film and dissatisfaction with the end product. Colman described it as "the worst experience of my life."
- Quotes
Archie: Now, listen, listen, please, please! Please, please, please listen, please. Please, now listen to me. You do not have an education from a boy's boarding school in the north of England and be the only gay boy there, and not know how to handle yourself. So if you move again, I'm going to break your arm. Do you understand?

Hilarious
A highly entertaining and original comedy using the cream of British comedy acting talent, who spent weeks improvising before arriving at the final script.
At times the writer/director Debbie Isitt doesn't seem sure whether to make her characters comic or endearing, but usually succeeds in doing both.
The 'Tennis Match' wedding is very funny, while the cast of non-dancers failing to achieve perfect symmetry in the Busby Berkeley sequence adds to the general hilarity.
Martin Freeman gets better with each role, Alison Steadman turns in her usual immaculate performance, with Jimmy Carr making the most of his first big screen role. Look out for the spectacularly camp wedding planners, who nearly steal the show from bigger names.
If you liked 'The Office' and 'Shaun of the Dead' you'll love this.
