    Gentle Classic Comedy Gem That Deserves Another Outing On TV Screens
  

*by B***1 on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 August 2018*

On The Up is a classic comedy gem that todays script writers need to look at to see how you write a sitcom that is not vulgar in which the whole family is able to sit down and watch unlike the crude shows of today!Written by Bob Larbey whose other famous sitcom is A Fine Romance that starred Judi Dench and Michael Williams, here he has a vehicle for Dennis Waterman who at this point mainly known for The Sweeney and Minder stars as Tony Carpenter a self made millonaire and owner and executive of a profitable car hire business may have made his way up to the top of the ladder has never forgotten his East-End Roots and instead of treating his employees like slaves thinks more of them as friends much to his posh wife's disgust who looks down on them as servants who should be seen but not heard.We have the wonderful and talented Joan Sims who plays Mrs Wembley the household cook and has that immortal catchphrase "Just The One" when gets asked weather or not wants a glass of sherry.Sam Kelly known for being in comedy series Porridge or Allo Allo plays Tony's longtime friend and chauffeur Sam along with Jenna Russell (Born and Bred) who is his personal assistant Maggie.Shame we have to go back to the classics like On The Up, A Fine Romance, Sink or Swim, Are You Being Served, That's My Boy, You Rang M'Lord, Hi-De-Hi, Dads Army, Sorry, Last Of The Summer Wine and many more who had fantastic writers sadly lacking in todays world of reality shows.This is a must for anybody who loves good old fashioned sitcoms, Joan Simms is in her element playing Mrs Wembley and the banter between her and Sam Kelly is very funny.

    Must watch again ..
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 April 2021*

Good, "Clean"  &  Easy to Watch  -  all  round  good  entertainment  without  having  to  rely  upon  bad  language  or  overt  innuendo  in  order  to  hold  an  audience  and  absolutely  no  requirement  to  tolerate  mixed,  same  sex  sexual  dialogue  -  kissing,  petting,  etc.,  all  fine  (for them)  in  the  privacy  of  their  own  homes,  but  not  in  my  sitting  room,  thank  you  ...  or  maybe  I'm  just  old fashioned .

    Another Great Series Spoilt By Poor Audio Quality
  

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 April 2022*

So look forward to add this title to my collection, only to find poor quality control when production house lazily making this transfer. The product is well presented in individual case then housed inside the outer box.That's where the quality ends with this product.The video quality is acceptable BUT the sound volume is awful and very very low.You're liable to damage your equipment if you decide to watch something else after this awful DVD disc.Such a shame since the actual sitcom is superb. I'll have to find another copy elsewhere.You have been warned.!
