Critical reception

TV Guide wrote that a "good performance by Victor and an intelligent script lift this one above the ranks."[4] The film historians Steve Chibnall and Brian McFarlane agree: "The film is quite neatly structured but, without the coherence which Victor's sympathetic understanding of the central character gives, it would seem much thinner than it does. Its comedy centres on the drabness of an oppressive domestic situation and, in the flowering of George Potter, what may be lost in unthinking conformity to a routine."[5]

gollark: I probably get away with doing a lot of stuff weirdly because I have a lot of free time and very little actual demand on my server stuff, since the only user is me. Though I do have a lot of important data and random services.
gollark: I just use entirely open-source software on my servers (except gameservers and probably some drivers), and don't have to deal with that sort of problem.
gollark: My stuff displays it just as % utilization with separate frequency graphs per core.
gollark: Measuring it in terms of frequency makes no sense, though. Modern CPUs change their frequency all the time in response to demand, for one thing.
gollark: Measuring CPU usage by *frequency* instead of % seems *really* weird to me.
