The Plank

Oh, that’s brilliant! Thank you for the recommendation

I remember The Plank from many years ago, comic genius

I remember this film! A gem! Just great fun: recommended.

Ooh, we have this on DVD.......must seek it out and watch it.

I found The Plank on YouTube one day when my youngest grandson was visiting. We laughed and laughed, it's a wonderful piece of comedy.

One of my favourite films, and grandson loves it, too.
We also like the laurel and hardy film when Stan gets crabs in his pants.

I had a copy on DVD and used to show it to my year 10/11 students when they were stressed over exams!
Wonderful light relief.

This frequently gets repeated on TalkingPicturesTV, and I always rewatch.
Sykes had hearing problems, and I’d guess that is what drew him to it.
I read that there was a 1979 remake that includes Charles Hawtrey, I’d love to see that.

Love that film. Have you seen Futtock's End, which is similar, (but a bit risqué in parts)?

I haven't seen that, but the name is very appealing.

Apparently Charlie Hawtrey plays the van driver’s mate in the remake. I wish TalikngPicturesTV would show the remake, I’d love to see it.

I haven't seen that, but the name is very appealing.

The name is a suitable warning. PC it ain't, but it's still funny.

I saw this a while back and wondered if it might be dated - well, it is a bit, but still very, very funny.
