Ended up watching this on Christmas Eve against my usual judgement and quite enjoyed it- the story of the downtrodden members of a Women's Institute branch in Yorkshire who create a nude calendar to raise funds for a hospital's cancer wing after the death of one of the group's husbands. It has a really good cast, almost a who's who of British film and TV- Julie Walters, Celia Imrie, Penelope Wilton, Helen Mirren etc, and its a really good, resolutely British story as they battle to get approval for the calendar and subsequently achieve a degree of fame.

And apparently its all based on a true story...

Nothing wrong with admitting a fondness for the Mrs Robinson type Luc...

Which one- Anne Robinson? I'd be too terrified to do anything, she has a really icy stare! However, if some event caused me to wake up in 'The Graduate' as Dustin Hoffman's character I may have less reservations about the other Mrs Robinson, Anne Bancroft looks OK in that film......
