Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Paul Evans It's so hard not to get nostalgic about Last of the Summer Wine, it conjures up Sunday evenings with my Gran, ham sandwiches, coconut macaroons, just a wonderfully warm, comforting feeling.People argue the show isn't full of laughs, I disagree it was fun to watch with all the family. Wonderful characters one and all, from the original line up of regulars , Compo, Cleggy and Blamire, through Foggy, Truly etc. To the wonderful characters we'd come to love, Nora Batty, Ivy, Howard and Marina, Edie, Auntie Wainwright, Smiler etc, the wonderful Eli!!The golden era for me would always be the trio of Compo, Cleggy and Foggy, the trio worked beautifully well together, complementing one another so well.The Christmas specials were always an extra special treat. Merry Christmas, Father Christmas is just brilliant.No surprises that it ran as long as it did, it had scarily high viewing figures in its prime. I was gutted it ended when it did, but all good things must come to an end.A shining gem, 9/10

thrall7 I had read about "Last of the Summer Wine" in a number of articles, and was familiar with some of the cast members (particularly those in the later series) before I ever got to see this waste of electricity. I have great admiration for the British, and for many of their situation comedies and dramas, but how this show stayed on for nearly forty years is one of television's great mysteries to me. The plots are simplistic; the characters ridiculously broad and stereotyped; but maybe worst of all, it's the same dumb show year after year after year. Stupid ideas from equally stupid characters. How many times can something that didn't work when you were 13 seem like a good thing to try when you're 73? Was it the fact that virtually the entire cast consisted of veteran actors what made this a hit in England? While it's nice to see them keep working, it would be better to see them in a show that was complimentary to an older actor, i.e.; "As Time Goes By."

TheLittleSongbird This is hilarious. True, I do prefer the earlier episodes, and it wasn't the same without Compo, but that doesn't deter me from putting on the television and relaxing for 45 or so minutes. The men's antics are a tad predictable, but they are still hilarious, like the episode with Compo dressing up as the ice cream man, with a duck-caller. Another priceless gem was when Seymour, Compo and Clegg try and help Howard escape, and their inflatable boat sinks, and all four men end up in the river. But for me, my favourite episode has to be Das(Welly)Boot. And of course, I love any episode with Foggy. The performances are first rate, especially Bill Owen as Compo. I noticed on the laughter track he got the most laughs. But Peter Sallis as Clegg, Brian Wilde as Foggy and Michael Aldridge as Seymour were a delight as well. I mustn't forget Kathy Staff as Nora Batty. The newer episodes are good, but it's not the same without those lovable characters, because Peter Sallis I think is the only one of them still alive, and over the years is subdued to cameo appearances. All in all, a hugely satisfying comedy series, that still looks good after 30+ years thanks to the amazing countryside scenery. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Izak86 I loved Last of the Summer Wine in the early 1990's when I was a kid and really enjoyed the mischief Compo, Clegg and Foggy got up to. Story lines also included Compo's constant attempt to attract Nora Batty which was always a laugh, but sadly in 1999, Bill Owen (Compo) passed away. Surprisingly though, the producers just continued making new series. The 'Compo's Funeral' episode was very touching but in my opinion, this should have been the show's final episode, ever since then, the show's quality has declined rapidly. Many of the other major characters have now passed away and often just replaced with other 'similar' characters, making it more like a soap than a much-loved sitcom. Even Clegg (Peter Sallis) is now only in episodes briefly.I feel the producers are now just trying to keeps the show alive for as long as possible, but with few 'original' characters and poorer story lines, new episodes could tarnish the image of the series that was once brilliant.
