The Likely Lads - Series 1 - 3 DVD

Featuring all the surviving episodes of the classic 60s comedy including the first ever episode and the final instalment.

Before Whatever Happened To... came The Likely Lads. A slice of 60s working class life, it slotted in neatly alongside Steptoe and Til Death Us Do Part, but this time the focus was on youth and it was set far away from London...

These are the same Terry Collier and Bob Ferris we learnt to love in the legendary 70s series - only younger. Two sharp young Geordies, short on cash, hormones buzzing, eager to live their young lives to the full.

Terry, though po-faced and cynical, is quick-witted and full of madcap schemes; Bob, cautious and socially ambitious but lacking his mate's self-confidence, is invariably dragged along. Theirs is a responsibility-free world of booze, girls, football and laughs - but somewhere there is also a nagging feeling that their youth won't last forever...

Entente Cordiale - The boys return from two weeks on the Costa Brava to discover an attractive French girl from the resort is coming over.

Double Date - Terry comes to the aid of love-lorn Bob by fixing them both up with a date.

Older Women Are More Experienced - Terry makes a move on the divorcee canteen manager at the factory.

The Suitor - Terry enlists Bob's help to get rid of his sister's boyfriend.

Last Of The Big Spenders - The boys try to impress two London girls as they take them out on the town.

Rocker - Bob invests in a mod scooter.

Goodbye To All That - When Bob joins the army, Terry secretly decides to join up too.
