I can't be bothered watching sit-coms but with such a stellar cast - John Cleese (his first sit-com since Fawlty Towers), Alison Steadman, Anne Reid - I thought Hold the Sunset had to be worth a try.
It wasn't.
Same old ...
Even a cast like this can't do much with a trite, hackneyed script.

    I can't even look at John Cleese since he did all those ads for Sainsbury's and the insurance company. Desperately unfunny.

    Perhaps he needs the money after all those divorces, Serenknitty. You'd almost feel embarrassed for him in this series.

    Oh rats...you had me at Alison Steadman, but think I'll watch the Olympics instead. By this time next week I'll have myself convinced I actually know how to ski or curl.

    That was my thought, Darlene - rats!
