Now I can't admit to being the biggest of fans of PG Wodehouse's work, but Heavy Weather is an exception. One of the wackiest, most eccentric things you could ever watch. The story itself is of course very well known, many of us will have read it, and either loved, or loathed it. The translation from book to film is first rate, the direction is spot on, but it's the acting that makes this entire presentation fantastic. A wonderful cast assembled, led by the incredible Peter O'Toole, his brilliance is truly addictive, his natural eccentricity made him the ultimate casting for Clarence, but the remaining cast of Richard Briers, Judy Parfitt, Samuel West etc, just a magical combination.
A perfect diversion for a quiet, relaxing Sunday Afternoon, 8/10
