The family set off for a picnic in the country with all the paraphernalia - the cine camera, the frozen barbecued chicken - all of which is looked on, with sixth-form cynicism and disgust, by the family's son. Nor does he think he's going to enjoy the trip round the Cheddar Gorge…
My wife and I had been married for about three months when we saw this film. We thought it was absolutely hilarious. There were two families, each awful in their own way. The "lower class" family took absolutely everything with them on their picnic, even a kind of "portaloo". One line that sticks is the man in that family saying that "The French always fall down in their toilets," in a broad Bristolian accent. The other man, (who doesn't agree with him) is a prissy middle class man. The middle class man has a daughter, the lower class man has a son. The two youngsters separate themselves from their parents and go off, ending in a bit of a cuddle, in which the girl loses her trousers. When they are found, the prissy man gives the girl his own trousers for the drive home. He then manages to get stopped by the police and have to get out of the car…….. We have never forgotten this film, and its succession of hilarious lines.
