You Can't Teach a New Dog Old Tricks
2016, English. Directed by Dewi Humphreys.
Picking up where Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft's classic comedy left off, it's 1988 and Young Mr Grace is determined to drag Grace Brothers into, well 1988, but he has a problem on his hands. Mr Humphries, Captain Peacock, Mr Rumbold and Mrs Slocombe all seem to be stuck in another era. A new member of staff, Mr Conway, joins the team but will he help shake things up or will he just put a cat amongst the pigeons?
