A TALE OF TWO CONTINENTS Film Review - 11/4/08

Many years ago Monkey & Al (Johnny Vegas) starred in a number of TV adverts for ITV Digital and at the time it was mooted that a sitcom with Monkey & Al would transpire - Unfortunately that did not happen and ITV Digital went down the pan leaving Monkey & Al in limbo for several years. Fast forward to now with the triumphant return of Monkey & Al to TV with a new series of adverts for PG Tips and a huge stash of merchandising opportunities. Dumping Al for the big screen Monkey makes his feature-film debut in "A Tale Of Two Continents" as a B-movie flick playing before "The Game Plan" "Hannah Montana 3D" "The Spiderwick Chronicles" and "Horton Hears A Who" in cinemas all over the country. Now coming to a tea packet near you soon you can not only get Monkey's fabulous film on DVD but a free tea towel with the film's poster on it on promotional packs - Probably all sold out now anyway?

Travelling through the history of tea in ten minutes; Monkey the arrogant knitted sarcastic ratbag gives a performance of outstanding mastery. This fantastic DVD not only contains the film but a splendid selection of Bonus Material with an Outtakes feature and a great Commentary. You can also print off the movie's Poster and there are details of Monkey's Game. Widescreen in English. Have a cuppa!
