Featured review
Standout episode.
Eric and Hattie are bored and frustrated, that boredom is broken when they get a knock at the door, little Tommy Grando, who's now very much grown up.
Wow, I didn't read the cast list beforehand, I couldn't believe it when I saw Peter Sellers at the door, and let's be honest he adds something pretty special, meaning that Stranger is a very special, classic episode. I think this may well be the show's most notable episode.
It plays out in wonderfully comical fashion, it's very funny with some wonderful slapstick moments. The scene in the store was side splitting.
Could that dress have been any more hideous, those cherries.....
The looks of sheer joy on the faces of both Eric and Hattie are genuine and real, you can see the pair are in awe of the presence of Sellers, the chuckles that they both struggle to hold back are a joy to behold.
An absolute classic, 10/10.
