That just screams "hit film" to me, but I suspect there is a missing initial letter....

That was the sentence that filled me with the most dread.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

I'd like to be positive about it since it's got Yorkshire connections but honestly I can't see this being anything but a horrible mangling and a disaster.

You know it's wrong when they cast Catherine Zeta-Jones, no idea as what or who, surely not Pike's mum.

Well if anyone has experience of spending time with dangerously old men...

Oh, come on - anything with Bill Nighy in is bound to be funny.

I'm all for a remake. When Arthur Lowe, John Le Mesurier, Clive Dunn, John Laurie, James Beck and Arnold Ridley all sign up to it, I'll go and watch it.
|

That's exactly my thought. You can't replace the cast.
Terrible idea.

'Its doomed I tell you, doomed '
With the right script it could work , decent actors to start with

Hmmm, It worked originally because the people involved had lived through WWII and also it was closer to WWII so in general grand parents could explain to kids. While I am a big fan of Dads Army, I don't think it will work as expected the event (WWII) that caused it is no longer a common memory...(also can't 'they' think up anything else..)

Sounds like it could work as a sequel to "Iron Sky" 
How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

Nope. All the good ideas were used up twenty years ago. Everything since then is either a remake, a re-launch, or a mash-up.

Surely the 7th remake of the Batman story will be original!

I'm willing to bet that they tried to get The Big Yin for Frasier, and he turned it down -- but not because of ill health.
I'll wait until there are clips on youtube, but I'm not holding out high hopes (I mean, they've cast that Jones woman -- it has to be cr@p).

Can anyone tell me what you're supposed to do? Some bloke has driven into the back of my wife's car (which was parked with her in it). They've exchanged names and addresses (presumably for insurance purposes and not extra-marital liaisons). Minimal damage but probably will need garage attention.
Now what's supposed to happen?
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

I would suggest you report it to the police, and get an incident number. You then contact your insurance company and give them all the details including the police incident number. Or, you could contact your insurance company's help line and ask them.
|

Don't report to police unless there has been a crime act.
|

It's always worth it in case the other party tries to blame you, as happened to me some years ago.
