"If I had all the money I'd spent on drink...I'd spend it on drink"

Sir Henry at Rawlinson End, a superb slice of sepia surrealism from Stanshall (Vivian) was most entertaining. I think it's fair to say this film isn't for everyone, it's obviously in a particular British trendtypevein of comedy, maybe Goons-Python-Boosh or something, so I'd avoid if those don't take your fancy. Otherwise you've got a strange snapshot of Sir Henry, played by Trevor Howard, and the upper class twits who surround him, plenty of decidely un-pc jokes, lots of drinking and so many brilliant lines I'll have to watch it again.
