Legendary actor David Jason (Only Fools and Horses, A Touch of Frost) stars in this 1989 ITV comedy drama series that’s all about keeping it in the family.
Weddings can be a fraught affair at the best of times, but when Ted Simcock (Jason) – the father of the groom, and the bride’s mother, Liz Rodenhurst (Nicola Pagett – Upstairs Downstairs, An Awfully Big Adventure) make it a day to remember for all the wrong reasons, it sparks a chain of events that changes the lives of the snobbish Rodenhursts and working-class Simcocks forever.
Adapted for the screen by David Nobbs – the man who also created The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin, and based on his own novels A Bit of a Do and Fair Do’s - A Bit Of A Do is a sharply-written comedy drama which won David Jason the Best Actor Award at the 1990 British Comedy Awards. It also comes with a number of special features, which include:
- Archive interview with Nicola Pagett on Sunday Sunday from 1989
- Archive interview with creator David Nobbs on Tonight from 1988
- Dogfood Dan and the Carmarthen Cowboy – a one-off comedy play from 1982 by David Nobbs about two long-distance lorry drivers.
Question - Who does David Jason Play in the film?
Answer - Ted Simcock
Good Luck!
