So,having endured weeks of UK Golds relentless publicity for this exclusive screening the question is was it worth the wait?
From the start I recognised the plot straight away,both it and the script were later rehashed into the episode from series one “Born to be King”.
Philip Fox was just not right as Baldrick but it was a shame he did not appear in the preamble before the presentation. It was interesting seeing a young Robert Bathurst playing Prince Harry.
Yes it was nice to see this Pilot episode but it wasn’t really earth shattering.
One thing that wasn’t explained was the term “Lost”. Was the film buried away in an archive and only just found,or has UKTV just stumped up enough cash for the rights to show it?
