Margery
and Gladys (2003)
A good old-fashioned English Class System comedy with Penelope
Keith, of ‘To the Manor Born’ fame, and June Brown, the long serving
‘Eastender’ Dot Cotton, playing to type perfectly. Margery (Keith) thinks she
has killed a burglar so goes on the run with her cleaning-lady Gladys (Brown)
and their subsequent trials and tribulations make for a laugh out loud film.
The supporting cast includes Roger Lloyd Pack (‘Only Fools and
Horses’ and ‘The Vicar of Dibley’), Martin Freeman (‘The Office’ and ‘Sherloc’k)
and Peter Vaughan (‘Game of Thrones’ and just about every BritishTV series
since 1954!).
I saw this made for TV film recently by accident when channel
hopping and thoroughly enjoyed it.
