    A VHS copy of this went through Ebay a while ago in the Warner "Comedy Capers" series - unfortunately I got outbid and I've never seen another but at least it got commercially released so you may be lucky at some time. (There's a copy of the movie tie-in novel on there at the moment if you're interested)

    Yes, there are always seemingly copies of it being sold on Ebay...though it seems ironcically there seem to be more available in the US format, where the film is called "Think Dirty", and that's the copy I have. I have often wondered whether there is any difference between the two films at all. I remember on the Marty Feldman documentary seeing a scene where the vicar is throwing pillars at Marty as he tries to get up the stairs. That is certainly not in the American version, though I'm not sure if it is in the British one either. Perhaps it was just a cut scene. Too bad. Some kick ass stunts there...they should've left it in.



    It's a very fun movie though. I've always liked it.

    It's a mess but this film does make me laugh, especially the contributions from Penelope Keith and Dinsdale Landen.
