i have to disagree with emma burridge and except for her statement that it be on a par with on the bus a an example of 1970 comedy . the 1970 be almost certainly the bad year of british comedy we have such great a love thy neighbour and george and mildred and robin nest the story line and ( suppose ) humour of which be not only obvious and transparent but very shallow and unsophisticated . that be to say that they can not cause even a ripple of mirth now and and it surprise me that they would have do when they be film . i do think that there be some good comedy in the 1970 and though and and these include dad army ( although after james beck death these be considerably weak and rely on slapstick from clive dunn and to a less extent arthur lowe ) but of course and this be really a 2060 comedy while altogether a different era of quality . a for the confession film and not one of them should raise a laugh at any stage and and it really do seem barely credible that standard of decency and morality have drop so far that most people nowadays would find it hard to credit that these be x rat film when they be make .
