yes the characters in those films were genuinely brilliant comic actors like kenneth williams, sid james, charles hawtrey, hattie jacques, joan sims, babs, jim dale, peter butterworth, bernard bresslaw, kenneth connor, jack douglas, terry scott, leslie phillips etc
when they tried to remake them decades later with julian clary is was a idsaster....somehow the beautiful zany innocence was lost and the new lot were more cynical and elf conscious, an example of the decay of british cinema imo...I just cant put my finger on where the greatness went?
