About this deal

The British comedy drama stars James Purefoy, Imelda May, David Hayman, Dave Johns, Jade Anouka, Ramon Tikaram, Fiona Button, Sam Swainsbury, Richard Harrington and Maggie Steed. The sequel to 2019’s Fisherman’s Friends, Fisherman’s Friends One and All (2022) is coming to both Blu-ray and DVD this November in the UK. Following the death of Jago ( David Hayman), the sea-shanty band are looking for a new member to join them – enter Morgan Jenkins ( Richard Harrington), and Jim ( James Purefoy– Momentum) isn’t finding any of this easy to deal with, frequently talking to his Dad, leading to Hayman appearing onscreen at the appropriate times. I get this, as I would still frequently talk to my Dad after he died in 2015, and even today, there are still times when I’ll think about something, and imagine how he would react.

As a couple of asides, the screening I saw had subtitles, which actually helped, because – and I don’t know if this is always the case or just on the screening I saw – the dialogue was rather muffled at times. Daniel Mays, Tuppence Middleton and Noel Clarke will not be returning, despite appearing in the first film. Overall, Fisherman’s Friends 2: One and All is too long, and with at least one or two unnecessary subplots that could easily be trimmed out – for example, one being where Jim’s mum has had an accident and is in need of assistance, and he now thinks that since his Dad has passed away, his Mum might also.FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS: ONE AND ALL charts the next instalment of the Fisherman’s Friends amazing and uplifting true‐story. Following the unexpected success of their debut album “No Hopers, Jokers and Rogues” we rejoin the world’s oldest ‘buoy band’ a year later struggling to navigate the pressures, pitfalls and temptations of their newfound fame. FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS: ONE AND ALL follows the celebrated shanty singers through the highs and lows as lifelong friendships are put to the test and they battle the dreaded ‘curse of the second album’.

FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS: ONE AND ALL is released in cinemas nationwide by Entertainment Film Distributors on 2 nd September 2022. His Mum, Maggie ( Maggie Steed), runs a B&B in which they both live, and coming to stay early on, is washed-up singer-songwriter Aubrey Flynn (singer-songwriter Imelda May). Jim and Aubrey get on like two peas in completely different pods, so you can imagine how things will go from there. Fisherman’s Friends 2: Fish Harder… sorry, Fisherman’s Friends 2: One and All, which feels like rather a mouthful and which doesn’t quite scan, but on watching this overlong film, I understood it’s a Cornish motto, and basically the same as The Three Musketeers’ “One for all and all for one”.On Friday 2nd September, FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS: ONE AND ALL, the highly anticipated sequel to the beloved 2019 uplifting comedy hit, sails into cinemas across the UK and Ireland. Selected items are only available for delivery via the Royal Mail 48® service and other items are available for delivery using this service for a charge. And while I know the original band ended up at the Pyramid Stage in Glastonbury in 2011, they attempt to recreate this here with long shots of the band on stage, and bad CGI adding the cast’s faces to the screens by the side. Any close-up shots of the band, only show a handful of audience members. Okay, so it’s not going to be the done thing to take up time on a busy weekend to shoot one scene from a film at the REAL Glastonbury, as that could take up the entire afternoon, but it still adds to the feel of this whole production that it’s rather half-assed. This is no downbeat, kitchen sink drama though. The Fisherman's Friends get up to plenty of japes due to their newfound fame, such as Leadville (Dave Johns) struggling with political correctness.
