DAvid Jason fallen on hard times ?

Or he just getting old and trying to recapture his youth?

Either or i found it quite disappointing this evening and a shame for someone so distinguished in Xmas memories to produce something quite pants really.

Not helped by the fact all the stunts are quite obviously done by other people heh

You couldn't tell not to watch by the trailer?

Only fools and horses was cutting edge comedy at the time.

Jason got left behind...

The trailer looked dreadful, every mention/review I've seen of it says it was crap. I'm glad to have missed it.

It was like a slow paced Johnny English, the 'bemused, how did he get this job' gag runs out after two minutes.
Simply dreadful..and the dyed hair..please Jason..no more.

It was absolutely gash. Gave it a whirl because Jason can normally pull rabbits out of hats even when the material is lacklustre but here it's just the writers trying to put Del Boy somewhere else and it being horribly awful.

I think it just came out 30 years too late - that kind of comedy would have gone down well in the 80s - now its tired derivative and shite!
