| BSG Review: |
This follow-up to 'Doctor In The House' was easily as funny as its
predecessor. The extended series concentrated on three of the ex-students'
subsequent escapades and the new premise gave plenty of scope for story ideas,
and allowed George Layton and Geoffrey Davies to emerge from the background and
shine in their own right. The addition of Richard O'Sullivan as the odious
Bingham, and an illustrious string of guest stars - among them Hattie Jacques, Mollie
Sugden and Arthur Lowe - make this show an example of why sequels can be a good
idea. |
