Coronation Street - Out of Africa DVD
This time, she is in Sun City, South Africa where she is on the verge of pulling off the biggest scam of her life. The only slight problem is that Cilla is going to need some help if her plan is going to work out. So she calls upon her estranged family and convinces them to fly half way around the world and join her in Sun City. However, what Cilla does not tell them straight away is that Fizz will have to be a nun, Ches has to be in a wheelchair and Kirk will have to be his brother. What is more, Les has been replaced by a native.
DescriptionScheming Cilla Battersby is back – and this time she’s got her eye on the main chance. The selfish mother-from-hell is on the verge of pulling off her most audacious scam to date but there’s one small problem. Cilla needs her family to join her in South Africa. But after deserting them so many times before – she’s going to have to go to extraordinary lengths to convince or cajole Chesney, Fiz and even Kirk to fly across the world and put aside their differences if they are going to hit the jackpot!

ReviewsA rotten storyline, poorly realised secondary characters, indifferent acting, and what I find especially unforgiveable from Coronation Street, dialogue that sounds as though it was cobbled together in minutes. Avoid! bought as christmas present for mother she loved it . good for coronation street fans As a Corrie fan, I obviously didn't want to miss this disk. The Battersbys aren't my favourite characters, but the novelty factor made up for that. Overall, the storyline is quite funny. It's very predictable, but you'd expect that. The problem for me is just the sheer length. Although I appreciate it's advertised as a feature length film, there just doesn't seem to be enough content to spread out over 100+ minutes of footage. While I enjoyed the DVD overall and would recommend a Corrie fan to have a go, in my opinion the whole thing would have been better if it was shortened by about a third. I really looked forward to this one but oh dear oh dear! Knew it was going to be different, but goodness me where was this idea dreamed up? A really weak story line with totally unbelieveable (and therefore not comic) situations. Sorry people just hope everyone concerned had a good holiday while making it...then everything wasn't a total waste of time. x The best characters in Corrie! So funny and is a good length to justify the price i paid for it. Any corrie fan will love it! | ||
