IT IS FILMED DURING AN ACTUAL PERFORMANCE OF THE STAGE SHOW,SO IF YOU LIKE COMIC MUSICALS THEN THIS FOR YOU. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious - even funnier than the TV sketches *by M***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 March 2006* When I saw this show in the West End last year I was worried that it wouldn't live up to my expectations. However I was not disappointed. I was lucky enough to see Julie Walters don her Mrs Overall pinny and since then I have regularly scoured Amazon to see if the show has been launched on DVD or the soundtrack on CD.I have to say that this DVD has been well worth the long wait and, whilst there aren't that many extras the musical itself has been excellently recorded. To be fair it takes a little while to really get going and set the scene, but when the "West End Musical" version of Acorn Antiques kicks in there is no stopping the cast. The pastiches of Sondheim and Fosse musical numbers, amongst others, are hilarious and very clever. We are also given a rare glimpse into life in Manchesterford and meet the other shop keepers and customers in the street.The actors familiar from the TV shows are uniformly excellent as are the rest of the cast. The actress who takes over the role of Miss Berta from Victoria Wood (Sally Ann Triplett?) is wonderful and makes the character her own! The star of the show is without doubt Mrs Overall played by Julie Walters who sings a particularly hilarious (and surprisingly foul mouthed!) song dedicated to different types of biscuits. She is also a surprisingly good dancer considering her piles (Mrs O's that is not Julie Walters’).As I say, there aren't that many extra's to this DVD but one thing we do get is the chance to see Victoria Wood's crack at the role of Mrs Overall (she took over on Julie Walters' bingo nights apparently!). Taking over from Walters was a brave thing for Victoria Wood to do and she makes a pretty good job of it. Had we never seen Julie Walters in the role before, Victoria Wood would have made it her own but, as we have, she does suffer in comparison.However, whether she is on stage or not, this is ultimately Victoria Wood's show having created the characters, written the music and the words, and she should be congratulated for very successfully transferring the brief TV sketches into a full blown musical and creating an endearingly eccentric portrayal of a very British shop – Acorn Antiques. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Cut to the action (i.e. start at scene 7) *by M***B on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 September 2007* Having seen this show on its national tour, I was really looking forward to the DVD arriving. Clearly, by the time the show hit the road, some rather dead, dry wood had been pruned away from the start. All that rehearsal business was painfully tedious, and I think we only managed 3 minutes before searching forward to find the start of the "show within the show" (scene 7 on the disc).At this point, it all improved immeasurably. There are some excellent songs (although I was sorry to miss "Tip Top Tap", which remains in the opening wilderness), all very clever pastiches, with some brilliant lyrics. My favourite song is "Have Some Tea" - a real tour de force for Julie Walters.The extras on the disc include excerpts with Victoria Wood playing Mrs O.. They are fine when approached on their own terms, but if, like me, you grew up with Julie Walters' interpretation of the character, you may well find them a disappointment. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/54509246-acorn-antiques-the-musical](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/54509246-acorn-antiques-the-musical) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
