1977 Interview - In Conversation: Roy Clarke
Uncork a barrel of laughs and toast the world's longest running sitcom! Unencumbered by logic or sobriety, Britain's oldest if not wisest geezers - Compo (Bill Owen), Clegg (Peter Sallis) and Foggy (Brian Wilde) - kept us laughing for more than 20 years. In long-requested Vintage 1977, the three lovable senior delinquents continue to weave their way through life in the lovely Yorkshire Dales. Compo's ferret escapes. Clegg serenades flowers in the town café. Foggy wants the trio to have its own float in the Queen's Silver Jubilee. Includes seven supremely silly episodes in Season 4, plus a rare, 30-minute interview about Vintage 1977 with series creator Roy Clarke, the genius behind Keeping Up Appearances.
Ferrett Come Home - Compo's ferret has escaped and taken up residence at Nora Batty's. Can Wally get it back safely?
Getting on Sydney's Wire - Sid at the café is trying to install a bell, but its advanced technology is beyond Compo, Clegg and Foggy.
Jubilee - Holmfirth is organizing its own celebrations for the Queen's Silver Jubilee, and Foggy decides the trio should have their own float.
Flower Power Cut - Some people talk to trees, but Clegg is serenading flowers in the café.
Who made A Bit of Splash in Wales Then? - Foggy visits a lady friend in Wales, but what will happen when the others arrive?
Green Fingers - Deciding that the deterioration of the British vegetable is due to a lack of good honest muck (manure), our heroes go in search of good fresh vegetables and encounter a giant carrot.
The Bandit from Stoke-on-Trent - 'Laugh-a-minute' Amos Hames may have toured Europe in the 1940s, but what is he doing here at Holmfirth now? It all seems rather suspicious...
