Who watched "What We Did On Our Holiday" last night ?
If Roger doesn't get a top award for his performance, then there's absolutely no justice in the British acting profession.
Roger played a Parkinsons disease sufferer
Shane Ritchie and Pauline Collins also starred.

yeah I saw it
the acting was good but the story, as usual with TV drama, had a stupid cop-out ending

I agree Ruthie.
Shane started life as a stand-up comic, and Roger is probably better known as a comedian than a straight actor.
I remember seeing Sir Norman Wisdom in a straight television role, in a play called
'Going Gently', which was about a man dying in hospital of stomach cancer. That was another masterful performance.
