There's very little to love in this film - Yes Samantha Janus is nude in it, but if you want to watch nudity then go rent porn! Nudity doesn't make up for an unfunny comedy.

- TriviaBased on a stage play "Up 'n' Under" first performed by the Hull Truck Theatre Company in 1984.
- GoofsThe movie is set in Upton, West Yorkshire but at one point the team pass the Humber Bridge near Kingston Upon Hull while travelling from Arthur's house to the local rugby ground. This would be a 100 mile detour but was likely added to the movie as an homage to the original stage play being set in Hull.
