Cringeworthy.....! Did this start life as a Carry On script which was rejected as totally lacking in humour ? Then someone decided to pass it off as a " whimsical " comedy / drama..? Unfortunately like most " whimsical " comedy dramas it's painfully unfunny . Can only assume the writer had friends in BBC management ?....or compromising photos...??

Actually Still Life by Noel Coward was the original title and play. They just called the film Brief Encounter .
A very nice comforting drama great sound effects 😀
I really enjoyed it. Thank you.
Good story
‘Carry on ‘ style laugh 😂
I actually knew a girl who laughed like that !!
syrupy yarn about romanes
Can't cope with that laugh, gave up

Nope. Can't bear that awful laugh.
This is a rip-off of 'Brief Encounter'!
Plagiarism I hear you cry! And a woman doing a Barbara Windsor laugh.
No… ‘Still Life’ was the original Noel Coward play. ‘Brief Encounter’ was the later film adaptation.
It IS Noel Cowards Brief Encounter. As Janetteparr has already said. The original title as a play was Still Life.
This was recorded in 1998 & by far inferior to the film - regardless of the title
🤣
Incredibly boring yarn about romantic affairs of middle class and working class people.
