S01 E03 - Man About The House (1974)
Episode 3 of Britcom Goes to the Movies sees Guy and Rob tackle their first direct TV Sitcom Spin-off. Man About the House from 1974 was one of a glut of Hammer produced big screen versions of beloved TV sitcoms and the show, which debuted in 1973 spawned not only this film, but two other spin-off series, a US remake, and two US spin-offs. You could say it’s a bit of a big hitter.
However, the 1970s sensibilities and style of humour filled at least one of us with dread. Find out if those concerns were warranted as we dissect a 70s crowd pleaser which may or may not have aged well.
As well as Man About the House, we discuss Hammer Pictures, Love Thy Neighbour, Three’s Company, and much more. Our ongoing quiz continues to remain a close-run thing and our ranking list is beginning to take shape.
