This is what happens when you try to turn a 5 minute sketch character into a feature length movie.

I enjoyed the Nan character but I did wonder where it could go beyond Nan being outrageous, rude and grumpy.

And that is essentially how the film goes. The first 10 minutes are amusing and then I found myself questioning what the point of it all was. In trying to make Nan a more rounded character they lose most of what made her funny and there isn't enough good dialogue or material to justify or sustain the feature length run time.

There's is a message in there somewhere and there is surprisingly some emotion in the back story but it gets muddled alongside being kidnapped by a mentally ill vegan and followed by a dubious scouser.

I didn't come into this with many expectations, but thought it might be a bit of a daft laugh. It pretty much wasn't. Having read the trivia re the re-cutting of the film it starts to make sense how someone of the stature of the great Katherine Parkinson allowed herself to be in such tosh. This is puerile rubbish. Honestly, don't waste your time.

The film was slated for release pre-pandemic, and as a fan of the Nan character I had been very much looking forward to watching this. I was very disappointed. The various scenes did not flow, and the overall story was very weak.

Wait for it to come to a streaming platform before you maybe watch it.
