In 1976, a feature-length movie was released, directed by Michael Tuchner. By this time, both lads have moved house (Bob and Thelma to a detached house and Terry to a high-rise with his parents) and Terry also has a Finnish girlfriend called Chris (played by Mary Tamm).

The movie sees the lads lament their favourite pub getting knocked down and then moves on to a caravanning holiday farce. The fun ends with Terry and Chris splitting and Terry joining the merchant navy.

Bob and Terry sneak one last late-night drink together aboard Terry's Bahrain-bound ship in the harbour, but Terry has second thoughts the morning after and elects to stay at home. Bob, however, awakes hungover aboard the ship as it sets sail.

Any future ventures, although never formally announced, were scuppered by Bewes and Bolam's subsequent falling-out. One notable bit of trivia regarding the movie is that Ian McDiarmid, who would go on to play Palpatine/Darth Sidious in four Star Wars movies, made his film debut here, playing a vicar. Future 80s sitcom icons Vicki Michelle and Linda Robson also crop up. Michelle had already featured, as a different character, in the second season of the BBC show.
