1 reviewOne of the nineties most consistently successful and fondly remembered sitcoms, Birds of a Feather stars Pauline Quirke and Linda Robson as Sharon and Tracey, North London-born sisters left to fend for themselves, both financially and emotionally, when their husbands are jailed for armed robbery. While Darryl and Chris do time, the girls try numerous ways to bolster their dwindling finances from dog-walking services to hawking cheap perfume, swimming-pool construction to their own cleaning business: Maids of Ongar. Doing their best to hang onto Dalentrace, Tracey s smart home, the sisters also enjoy regular visits from waspish yet sympathetic neighbour Dorien (Lesley Joseph), whose high-grade gossip and extra-marital antics liven up many a dull day in Chigwell... This complete set brings together all nine series, including six Christmas Specials and a 1996 retrospective, The Chigwell Years. Contains 19 discs. Cert 12.

The staff at Grace Brothers rarely actually sold anything, but there were always certainties about the much-loved 70s series: Mr Humphries was 'FREE', Mrs Slocombe was worried about her 'pussy' and Young Mr Grace would appear to declare 'You've all done very well'. Alongside Captain Peacock, Mr Grainger, Mr Rumbold, Mr Lucas and Miss Brahms they filled the store with comic bickering, preposterous sales ideas and almost any excuse for dressing up. One of the sauciest, campest and funniest sitcoms of the decade. Contains 12 Discs. Cert PG.

Without a doubt one of the most long-lasting and endearing of ITV sit-coms, On The Buses lasted for a tremendous seven series - from 1969 to 1973. Starring Reg Varney as jack-the-lad Stan Butler and Bob Grany as 'clippie' Jack Harper, their unwavering objective is to get through the day with the minimum of work and the maximum ogling of birds. Determined to thwart this cunning masterplan at every opportunity is the slow but devious Inspector Blake ('Blakey' to his enemies). Not only does Butler have to contend with Blakey but he also has to put up with living at home and 'enjoying' the company of his mum, sister Olive (dearie me) and her husband Arthur - a lazy skiver if ever there was one. This complete-series set contains all 74 shows from each of the seven series. 11 discs. Cert PG.
