The bonuses include a commentary track with the director, Steve Roberts, as well as Sheila Reid Aunt Florrie and Jeremy Child Peregrine Maynard, as well as a picture gallery, synopsis, the script of unfilmed scenes, and actor biographies.
Amongst the eccentric family members, mad friends and grudgingly loyal servants involved are the eternally knitting Aunt Florrie, the tapewormobsessed Mrs. E, Lady Philippa of Staines Liz Smith, who enjoys the odd small sherry and the everpresent Old Scrotum, Sir Henrys wrinkled retainer.This extraordinary film is one of the most haphazard British comedies Ive seen. It is also a long time since Ive laughed so much... a cult in the making. The Guardian ........
