Press
David Jason is back as smart-talking grocer Granville in the sixth series of this nostalgic reboot. The family cornershop might be a rarity now - especially with the looming logistics chaos of Brexit - so the warm sepia tint of Still Open All Hours feels all the more necessary; a soothing balm of fictionally better times. There is the continuing slapstick of Gastric's relationship with Madge and shop assistant Leroy's romantic woes with Beth, but it's Jason's comic timing that steals the show.
