    Truly Dreadful Film

    Good concept, poorly executed.

    The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

    One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

    Bobby Moore was a great player, no Beckenbaeur or Maldini but being English and a World Cup winning captain he'll always be hailed as the greatest in the English media. The latest in biopics and documentaries of a story that has been done to death, a World Cup win 5 decades ago but this one focuses on Tina more than Bobby. Michelle Keegan plays Tina Moore like a second rate Sheridan Smith and the actor playing Bobby would send an insomniac to sleep with his dull persona. The football scenes are poorly done, not once are you convinced that any actor is genuinely watching their country watch a game of football or indeed see them win a World Cup. Found myself feeling a bit embarrassed for the actors and actresses in this is so poorly done. Watch the film 'Bobby' if you really feel the need to have more (excuse the pun) of 66 rammed down your throat but give this a miss.

    This miniseries was based on a book by Tina Moore so naturally the focus is on her.As a result the ups and downs of her husband's career seem to be no more than footnotes in her life.The problem is that he was one of the most gifted and famous footballers this country ever produced.So in no way does this do justice to his life and career.Unfortunately the actors hired to portray the famous couple are lacking.The actor playing Bobby would have problems out acting an oak tree.The script was poor and totally missed the obvious point that football players in those days would often end their careers with little to show for it and would have to struggle for the rest of their lives.Sadly Bobby Moore was no different.All rather sad.

    If you want a biography that takes you from A to Z in a superficial manner then Tina and Bobby fits the bill.If you want something in depth and insightful then this is not it. This is just a starring vehicle for actress Michelle Keegan who plays Bobby Moore's glamorous wife. The actor who plays Moore comes across as a bit of a wet fish, nothing like the steely defender who kept the Brazilian attack at bay in 1970 or marshalled an England team to world cup victory.The first episode concentrates on the newly married Tina and Bobby and his brush with testicular cancer. The second episode was the 1966 and 1970 World Cups as well as the notorious bracelet theft incident. The drama had to mix footage of the England v West Germany final from the ITV archives, the coloured film footage and the BBC scenes with Kenneth Wolstenholme's line of 'they think it's all over.' The final episode dealt with Bobby's financial troubles and problems in his marriage when Tina discovered his affair.This was a poorly produced biography, somewhere there is a better tale of Bobby Moore that remains to be written and shown.

    I caught this down at my mother's house otherwise I'd have ruined my life by missing it . Well perhaps "ruined my life" is a hyperbolic overstatement but it's a TV show that illustrates that you can become something of a television star without giving the merest hint that you're an actor I am of course referring to Lorne MacFadyen , an actor - and I mean that in its most generic sense - who I have never heard of and after watching TINA AND BOBBY no one will probably hear of again . There's two types of bad acting . The first is the OTT mincing thespian luvvie bad acting seen by the likes of Steven Berkoff . The second is the wooden , dull stilted type of acting MacFadyen is guilty of . Apparently Sir Bobby was a leader of men but I'm guessing if the Sir Bobby Moore seen here was in charge of a team they'd be hard pressed to find the half time pie and Bovril never mind win a world cup . I wasn't expecting Daniel Craig to be cast but I was hoping for something less wooden than a pool cue Thankfully the story revolves around Bobby's wife Tina and every fast paced storyline revolves around an underdeveloped quickly skipped over plot involving very little of interest . If nothing else it reminds me that not all double acts have a woman as the dumb blond and why I don't watch much television anymore
