This film is a delight to watch. From the opening sequences to the end you are simply rivetted to this hillarious story, which is beautifully filmed and features tremendous actors. Starring the talented Brenda Blethyn, gorgeous Craig Ferguson and dopey Martin Clunes as the druggie GP ?!?!?

Left impoverished by her swine of a husband, widow Grace, because of her financial straights and with help from her laconic gardener decides to start growing canabis.

There are some incredibly funny scenes, for example when they try to rig up a generator for the lights in the greenhouse and every night the greenhouse lit up whole countryside,

When Grace goes down to London and walks the streets stopping likely looking people trying to find a dealer to buy the stuff they have harvested, or

When the two little old shop ladies take a plant, thinking it's tea and end up stoned. Really funny.

I won't give any of the plot away - you have GOT to see the film, needless to say everything works out OK in the end. The scenery's wonderful (I believe it was set in Padstow), acting superb, definitely a film to watch again and again. A real feel good film.
