Readers have mixed feelings about the play, appreciating its bittersweet nature while finding some elements lacking. Many enjoy the themes of aging and family dynamics, but a few feel the execution could be improved.

Synopsis
To the painful ritual of Sunday family visits and empty condescension, Cooper and his friend Aylott reply with humour and wit, aware that life can only be endured if treated as a comedy.
A Month of Sundays was first produced in 1985 in Southampton and was then transferred to the Duchess Theatre In London in February 1986, starring George Cole and Geoffrey Bayldon.
A Month of Sundays is Bob Larbey's first stage play, although he is well known for writing many television series such as The Good Life, Please Sir, Get Some In and Ever Decreasing Circles , with his co-writer, John Esmonde.
His first solo venture for television, 'A Fine Romance’ won the British award for Best Comedy In 1982.
