“Is Ben following in his late grandmotheru0026#39;s footsteps into a life of crime? Is he the Black Cat, a Master thief of antiquities?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s a pale imitation of the original, where that had charm, warmth and humour, and a definite broad appeal for the whole family, this one just lacked anything unique.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe jokes simply didnu0026#39;t land, none of it was in the slightest bit funny, it felt very tired and somehow stale.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eJulia McKenzie made the original, her absence was the major difference here, nobody quite fitted the bill, Maggie Steed was ok, but McKenzie was missed.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eActing wise, Iu0026#39;ll give credit to young Archie Yates, but some of the acting was mediocre at best, thereu0026#39;s were just too many changes to the original lineup, I love both Griff Rhys Jones and Sheridan Smith, but the pair werenu0026#39;t great here. I thought David Walliams was excruciating.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e4/10.”
