Shit films from successful TV shows

[Ace]

The 'dirty old man' was a regular long term holiday maker in Hong Kong when I lived there in the 70's, he was regularly pissed on gin and sounded NOTHING like 'Albert Steptoe'

[steve56]

he was irish i believe.

[Pervert]

Doomwatch
Are You Being Served
Two rather ropy Dr Who films (albeit with the great Peter Cushing as the Doc)
Rising Damp
George And Mildred (shudder!)

man about the house,dads army,father dear father.

[The Last Word]

Ali G (and this was long after the joke had ceased to amuse).

Perhaps we should be grateful for the Fawlty Towers film that never happened. Cleese toyed with the idea, but considering each episode took four months to write he might still be working on it now.

BTW - Cleese: what's he done since Clockwise? A Fish Called Wanda doesn't count because it was so mystifyingly shit. Wasted talent, no?

[Holden MacGroyn]

Cleese = Over-rated cockshite along with the rest of the Pythons.
Wankers.

As for Ali G Da Movie...it ruled you miserable old fart.

.....with Rising Damp and Are You Being Served?
although I did like the 2 Dr Who films.

Another 2 piss-poor offerings were 'On The Buses' or 'Bless This House', although BOTH TV series were bollocks!!

[woodgnome]

er, hate to put a dampner on your moment of glory, ace but you actually say 'british shows' which isn't quite the same thing, innit?

[crofter]

Oh shit Ace, your 5 seconds of being a mod. on this forum seem over as you have to be corrected by ... erm shit, an erm mod., well done Woodgnome for spotting that loophole, seems Ace will need to settle for a ?blue peter? badge on this occasion for effort.
What about on the buses?? Seems sad to see that the majority of these gems were all shot in the 70?s and 80?s though all pre-sky television yank shit, sad that.

[Deuce Bigolo]

With that little imperfection in mind how about appointing him as understudy to the Janitor?

He's obviously blown his chance at becoming Head Milk Monitor
