Went to see it today and really enjoyed it, it is tragic comedy , so funny about not travelling with the band because they can't get on with him. He's totally cringeworthy but we all know people that just say and do the most inappropriate things and lack self awareness. Have to feel sorry for them and wonder why they turn out like this - has to be upbringing? If you're an Office fan you just have to see it.

Does Richard Gervais star in the film as well as writing it too?

Yes, good performances from the rest of the cast, especially the guys in the band, didn't really miss Office cast and it wouldn't have worked anyway as it's a different scenario

Same, I was gutted to hear none of the old crew would be involved. Would've loved to see Tim and Dawn at one of the gigs, even just catch a glimpse of Nelson the dog (great man, great dog) at his house.
I thought the same but Nelson would be long gone now I suppose.

I thought the film was good, very funny in parts, it didn't disappoint.

Had he have sold out each gig it'd only have cost him eight grand!

Did he hold her hand as they went through the doors at the end? Reminded me of when Dawn opened her present from Tim in the taxi, I always expect to see the brake lights come on

Can't stand watching comedy at cinemas with everyone laughing. Will watch it on blu-ray very soon hopefully.

Pizza express? Beer express.
