Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
"It's destiny, fate that brings us together. Redundancy. They just don't care that your mother used to eat insurance men and that yours was struggling to bring you up nicely as a little poof." So says Clegg (Peter Sallis) to his companions, Compo (Bill Owen) and Blamire (Michael Bates), three fellows getting on in years reunited by unemployment after knowing each other all their lives in a small Yorkshire town. There's no real story to Last of the Summer Wine, simply the well-observed banter of the central trio and a gallery of eccentric supporting characters. Compo, the irreverent and scruffy "village idiot" and Clegg, the amiable working man are well-loved figures, complemented by the middle-class Conservative Blamire (a nicely rounded portrayal by Bates) and Foggy (Brian Wilde), who joined the series in 1976. This set is a reminder of how good the longest-running comedy in British television history once was, when it was new, fresh, and laugh-out-loud funny. --Gary S. Dalkin

5 out of 5 stars Good price for hard to find title   July 27, 2008

Bought this for my mother, who loves it. It contains episodes from different series over the years, and 1 feature-length film. I thought the cover looked photocopied at first, but the quality of the DVD is high, with excellent playback.

Since I have seen virtually All of the 35 + years of production of this series on PBS, this collection is good, but there are many more episodes and some of them are better than what is included here. I hope some one from the BBC makes more of this great TV comedy series available in the near future.

Love this series. Would love to own more of this series. British humor is the best. I can't get enough of these guys. What characters.

A gift for my father, this is his all time favorite show. He watches these over and over again.


5 out of 5 stars And to think they credit Seinfield for the sitcom about nothing!   January 6, 2008

Definitely a comedy that is an acquired taste but one that becomes completely addicting! The three old guys are just little kids in wrinkled bodies, and the poor women in the series are stuck trying to cope with whatever silly idea has moved in next! It's not cruel or nasty humor, but one that is completely self-deprecating and can be enjoyed as much by a small child as a grandmother or father (in fact, one of my friends watches it with her grandson, and they both enjoy it!). Not much else can be shared across the generations and no foul language! But Nora Batty's wrinkled stockings might take some getting used to..LOL
