. Also their work with the guest star (the filmed version having Tom Hiddleston) is great - it’s always funny to have talented actors read awful dialogue and getting their surnames wrong Hiddleston has genuine comic chops. I don’t know how well he’d do in a comedic part, but he was fantastic as the Morcambe-and-Wise celebrity straight man. He has some great facial expressions and doesn’t have an ego about looking silly |

Wow this was awful, maybe it doesn't translate to the screen very well, but even the audience was pretty subdued. It was also more muddled as a piece than I expected.
Tbh I didn't think Tom was all that funny either. Yes it livened up in the second act and some jokes by the others at his expense did raise a smile, but not so much that I'd say it would be worth the cost of a ticket.

I tried to finish it last night and skipped through to the Tom Hiddleston bit but I also gave up after 5 mins as it wasn't any funnier even with a good actor in it.
