A series based on the goings on at my old local 'The Magazine Hotel', of course they'd have to rebuild the place in all it's (faded) glory to get the 'ambience' right and it would be a 'post watershed' series.
Some of the customers could have 'mini series' of their own they were such characters.

Strangers on a Train
In this classic remake, a group of people are on a commuter train from Clapham Junction to Waterloo. One is a Northerner and attempts to engage the others in conversation about the weather. The Southerners squirm, look at their shoes and put their headphones on

Sounds like a real nasty horror flick that.

Or maybe just re-run the original?

Mmm, maybe you do have a point.

I haven't read the thread, so forgive me if this has been raised previously.
Remembering that this is ostensibly a cycling forum, I would make a bio-pic of the incredible Andy Wilkinson, surely one of Britain's greatest ever amateur athletes or sportsmen in any field. Actually, I wouldn't make it: I'd get someone who knew how to make great films to make it.

You could then have a sequel:
The Grape Escape
About a plucky band of RAF officers who come up with a serious of ingenious schemes to escape the deadly grapes, but whose plans are scuppered when the butler from Upstairs Downstairs makes a schoolboy error. For marketing purposes you could include an American on a motorcycle. And Jim Rockford.
For the northerner it would be.

Do you have anything particular in mind? Moby Dick is the only thing I can think of.
More to the point, why would a northerner be on a 'commuter' train? Are off-licenses open earlier in central London?

I'd go all trashy: Dallas, dynasty, some thing like that. Something that doesn't require much brain power for easy viewing and very popular among the masses. But I'd have some stuff in there that only a few would understand and appreciate the humour.

Followed by a threequel
Planet of the Grapes
Three astronauts land on a futuristic planet ruled by talking grapes where humans are slaves. The stunned trio discovers that these highly intellectual berries have even established a class system based around red, green and black, and a political structure. The astronauts suddenly find themselves imprisoned by the grapes. At the end the last surviving astronaut discovers they're on Earth after all, before being eaten by a giant black grape called Shaun.
