2.20 Tutti Frutti

This month Andy and Martin review the highly regarded 1987
BAFTA-winning Scottish drama Tutti Frutti, written by John Byrne
and starring Robbie Coltrane and Emma Thompson. Unfortunately Andy
disputes that high regard and is staggered that Fortunes of War
(also with Thompson), another best drama nominee that year, lost
out to it. He finds Tutti Frutti to be deeply unfunny and its
joyful depiction of toxic masculinity difficult to stomach. Martin
on the other hand believes it has merits with several characters
and situations that are well drawn and memorable. Not since GBH has
an old show disappointed Andy so much and and as a consequence
caused such discomfort to his co-host. Have you watched it
recently? And if so, what did you think? Next Time: Undermind
