THE Full Monty fans all had the same complaint about the rebooted series as it launched on Disney+.
The Bafta award-winning movie was a huge hit when it was first released in 1997.

Fans were not happy about the narration throughout the series
Now the cast – including Robert Carlyle, Mark Addy and Lesley Sharp – have reunited for an eight-part series that launched yesterday on Disney+.
Taking place 25 years after the original British smash hit, the series followed the same band of brothers as they navigated the post-industrial city of Sheffield, and society’s crumbling healthcare, education, and employment sectors.
But fans were not impressed as many complained about the narration throughout the series, with many saying it was “annoying”.
Taking to Twitter to vent, one fan wrote: “How do I stop the narrator please.”
Another complained: “What have you done to the Full Monty!!!. I was so looking forward to watching the spin off only to see it done in a Big Brother commentary style show. Mind numbing is an understatement. Actually enjoyable if you could remove the commentary…”
A third asked: “How do I stop the commentary on the TV spin off series, any tips greatly appreciated.”
“The Full Monty series… what the f**k is the narrator for?”, another annoyed fan wrote.
A fifth echoed: “Same here! We thought there was something wrong with the TV.”
Luckily, Disney+ responded to one of the fans and explained that viewers can turn the audio description off if they wanted to.
Replying to a viewer, the streamer wrote: “Hi Clare, if you don’t need Audio Description, during playback, select the icon in the right-hand corner of your screen to display Audio and Subtitle settings. If that doesn’t work, please reach out to us via call or chat, right here: http://help.disneyplus.com. Cheers!”
Despite some negative comments about the “narration” others seemed to enjoy the series.
One wrote: “I love the way they’ve filmed this new series.”
A second added: “Well done to The Fully Monty team, a fantastic series.
The returning cast also includes Steve Huison and Tom Wilkinson.
