Leslie

Leslie Grantham and Lucy-Jane Quinlan portray fictionalised versions of themselves in this road trip comedy that examines family, celebrity, friendship and love. When Leslie's ex wife reveals she's dying, Leslie and his estranged daughter must make the trip to the Lake District to visit her on her death bed. But with all the trains cancelled due to bad weather, Lucy is forced to join her dad as he makes the journey by car.

Directed by Richard John Taylor, Leslie leans on a strong ensemble — Leslie Grantham, Lucy-Jane Quinlan, Lin Clifton — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2013.
