The final episode of the 16th Last of the Summer Wine season is at home amongst some of its better ones. This episode is filled with lighthearted entertainment, and fun for the whole family.
It's built, like quite a few of the episodes, on a simple premise - and the jokes revolve around the physical comedy of Bill Owen and his characters ever increasingly 'scruffy' appearance.
It took a little while for the narrative to get off the ground with the first third of the episode devoted to plot establishment - but that first third still packs in quite a few funny twists and turns. The rest of the episode is relatively decent and is if nothing else, entertaining.
Whilst to some it may be just another episode in the epic comedic series that is Last of The Summer Wine to others it might just make their top 10. For me, it's not especially memorably - at least in the context of the entire series, but it is still brilliant. For that reason, and the others above, I'm giving this one 8 stars.
8 Stars - *Brilliant*
