[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 80954, member: 23"] I've been revisiting the audio commentaries for the first few films in the series. In general these kind of features can be hit and miss, I think. Some of them can lean towards being a bit dry. But it's nice to have them there for posterity. The best examples of this kind of feature, I think, are the ones that allow the viewer to feel as though they're listening in on a group of friends having a bit of a giggle while reminiscing. [I]Teacher's[/I] commentary, which I've just finished watching, is a nice example this. The energy levels are high and the participants' enjoyment of each others' company comes across well. Robert Ross contributes just enough to keep things on track, but for the most part Richard O'Sullivan, Larry Dann and Paul Cole just get on with chatting about their memories, with some gentle, good-humoured teasing. A bit of a peek online led me to a few little titbits that I wasn't aware of before. It was a surprise to me, for example, to learn that Larry Dann played Dennis Tanner in the first [URL='http://coronationstreet.wikia.com/wiki/Dry_runs']dry-run of Corrie[/URL] a year or so later. The entire casting for it looks rather intriguing and very different. [/QUOTE]
