Hannah Waddingham steals the show with two classic lines.
The late, great Peter Bowles, Hannah Waddingham & Ben Starr give a lesson in perfect comedy timing in a memorable scene from the movie.
A reminder of what a talent our choreographer Jason Gardiner is. A clip from one of the dance numbers he choreographed that features Strictly Come Dancing winner Tom Chambers and Charlotte Gooch. The entire scene was shot in Kew Gardens, England.
Performed by Hannah Waddingam, who also co-stars in the movie, the Strange Shapes scene is a fan favourite. The clip features Stephanie Leonidas and Ben Starr.
The 'We All Have a Star Inside' scene from Great In Britain: The Movie performed by Stefan Booth.
God, played by Scots actor Jim Sturgeon, makes an unexpected appearance halfway through the film in an alternate cut of the scene that appears in the film.
The late, great Peter Bowles gives some sage advice for life in an alternate cut of the scene that appears in the film.
A scene from Great in Britain: The Movie featuring the late, great Peter Bowles, Stephanie Leonidas and Ben Starr. The scene was shot on a cold day in Kew, England and features Peter Bowles reading a poem by Walt Whitman. The charm, humour and grace Bowles brought to the film as Sir Edward Mead were immeasurable and he stole the show in every scene he appeared in. Peter Bowles was one of a kind and was truly a great in Britain. Thank you, Peter.
The film is currently only available on a limited release on Prime Video as a rental in the UK and USA.

The epic 5 year production & release journey of Great in Britain: The Movie is a story of determination, not giving up and overcoming the odds. The film was written and directed by writer and photographer, Howard Webster. Production primarily took place in Kew, Surrey with the final scenes of the movie being shot in Tadworth, Surrey after an epic production journey that spanned two referendums and one Brexit. The film began production in March 2014 with its final scenes being shot at the end of 2018 and post-production completing in 2019.
In 2015 a film festival cut of the movie was created under the film's working title, Meet Pursuit Delange: The Movie. This film festival cut of the picture is shorter and is missing key scenes which were not filmed at the time. This early version was shown at the Raindance Film Festival in October 2015 where an extra screening had to be added due to public demand for tickets. Despite this it still took until 2019 to complete the film. The picture finally had a boutique UK theatrical release in 2019.
The film led to a spin-off comedy and interview podcast called Great in Britain Radio with Season 1 being downloaded in 100 countries. Season 2 of the podcast is now in production and new episodes are available for download on most of the places you get your podcasts.
Great in Britain: The Movie is currently only available as a rental on Prime Video in the UK and USA.
The movie's 2019 theatrical release in the UK has caused some controversy. One church group refused to allow the film to be screened at a venue two days before the advertised screening was set to go ahead.

The movie's 2019 theatrical release in the UK has caused some controversy. One church group refused to allow the film to be screened at a venue two days before the advertised screening was set to go ahead. 'We decided not to make a big deal of it,' says the movie's director, Howard Webster, 'the potential tabloid newspaper headline MOVIE STARRING GOD BANNED BY CHURCH does rather write itself and we weren't sure it was the kind of attention we wanted to encourage and decided to take the high-ground.'
