Writer Simon Beaufoy said: "It's been a long road – via Hollywood - but finally the characters are coming back home to the place where it all started. Or to put it another way, we are all genuinely chuffed to bits!"

THE FULL MONTY will also feature the songs from the film by Donna Summer, Rod Stewart, Hot Chocolate and Tom Jones.
