Those born pre 60s will relate to this gem...

"There's a bottle of sherry, but I don't encourage it!!"

Douglas Adams' Long Dark Tea-time of the Soul on holiday in the '50's. Beautifully realised, Michael.

“Should have had another child”

“ No it’s a tanker”

An absolutely perfect, truly charming film. Captures that point in adolescence so gently, and so beautiful in its unique Britishness..... Just stumbled upon this film, but it really reminded me how fantastic small-budget British films used to be. A perfect piece of art!

Another example of the superb writing from the brilliant Michael Palin.

Such a wonderful slice of life at that time. Thoroughly enjoyed it

Well atleast Anna got to try the sausage sizzle😅🤣

A British gem and painfully accurate.

what a great film  by Michael Palin .no mobile phones!  lol. those were the days.x

A perfect film.
Thank you Michael Palin and everyone who captured this snapshot of what youth felt like - all these long years ago.

Michael Palin has his hand on the pulse of British character like no one else, outstanding and  incredibly accurate

Puberty at it's finest, I'm not sure we ever grow out of it, thankyou Mr Palin.

I adore you Michael Palin😍

Still watching this brilliant film in 2026! Best wishes to all!

Excellent movie. Relaxing to watch, something that is an extreme rarity in today's films.

RIP to Michael's wife, Helen, who died recently. He met her at Southwold and this film is partly about that meeting. Condolences to Michael. I'm sure he will miss her deeply.

Superb film! Haven’t watched a film this good in years

I was 16 in 1965, had a great life.
