Presented in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements in its theatrical aspect ratio, Love Thy Neighbour features Jack Smethurst (Chariots of Fire), Rudolph Walker (Eastenders), Nina Baden-Semper (Rage) and Kate Williams (Quadrophenia) all reprising their starring roles alongside appearances by comedy veterans Patricia Hayes (A Fish Called Wanda) and Arthur English (Are You Being Served?), Army Game legend Bill Fraser, It Ain't Half Hot Mum's Melvyn Hayes and Dad's Army's James Beck.
Unbeknown to their warring husbands, neighbours and close pals Joan Booth and Barbara Reynolds deliberately enter a "Love Thy Neighbour" competition to win a holiday cruise. Already fearing the consequences, the wives find neighbourly relations further strained when each couple has relatives to stay – prompting them to wonder what'll happen when Bill and Eddie find their parents actually get on..!
