A homage to Laurel and Hardy's Music Box. This was a wonderful trip down memory lane for me with so many familiar comedy faces that I grew up with in the 70's. Short appearances by the likes of Spike Milligan, Charlie Drake and Jimmy Edwards all add to the comedy genius of Eric Sykes. There is very little dialogue as we are catapulted back to the silent comedy era and a plethora of sight gags, the majority of which hit the spot. It's a simple premise with the band of undertakers manoeuvring a coffin down a high rise block of flats. The wobbly sets all add to the simple idea. If you are after sophisticated comedy you've come to the wrong place. Many laugh out loud moments and I happily smiled throughout the whole running time.
