Grumpy Old Men at Christmas
What a classic series and funny formula.
Take a bunch of ornery older blokes with a truckload of life experience,
get them together and tell them they can say just whatever the heck they
want on a given topic.
The result is one of the funniest, most
honest things you are likely to see on a DVD. There is nothing PC about
the way that they say things and all comments are straight from the
hip.
Complaints range across a broad spectrum of
topics that will have you in stitches, including a topic almost taboo in
Cliff Richard! Whilst the grumpy factor is played up a bit during this
DVD, the men featured are simply hilarious and do strike a number of
points that you will agree with or at least sympathise with!
The video quality is what one would expect
from a TV title, as is the audio. The video is 16:9 enhanced and audio
2.0 stereo. Both are fine and present no problems for this reviewer.
Running for an hour, this disc was so cool that I was disappointed with
the hour slot and wished for more, especially considering the workload
is shared by a decent group of entertainers.
Short run time not withstanding, highly
recommended.
