Product Description

Everyone s favourite Essex girls return with this fifth series of Birds of a Feather - one of the 1990s most successful, long-running and memorable sitcoms. This release comprises all thirteen episodes of Series Five along with the 1993 Christmas Special, featuring guest appearances by George Hamilton, George Wendt and Richard Branson. Created by the legendary comedy partnership of Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran (The New Statesman), the series chronicles the misadventures of Sharon and Tracy (Pauline Quirke and Linda Robson) - North London-born sisters left to fend for themselves, financially and emotionally, when their husbands are jailed for armed robbery. The girls have lived very different lives, Tracey enjoying the neo-Georgian splendour of Dalentrace - the luxury home paid for by husband Darryl s criminal activities - while her sister had remained in an Edmonton tower block. Now, Sharon lives with Tracey, enjoying a few home comforts and offering much-needed moral support - even if some of her habits prove a tad annoying. And if life in Chigwell sometimes seems a little dull, there are always the extra-marital antics of their man-eating Jewish neighbour, Dorien (Lesley Joseph), to keep them entertained...

By Mellow Yellow TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD
I am a mega fan of Birds of a Feather and am very lucky to have 99% of the entire series on DVD which I got from someone on Ebay. They were copied from old VHS (recorded off the TV) onto DVD and are of terrible quality, but I have made the best of it and hoped that one day the BBC would get around to releasing the rest of this fabulous series on official DVD's. Well its taken many years, but that day has come! There were 102 episodes in total and was aired from 1989 to 1998 and has a massive fan following. There were 9 series made and so far only the first 8 series have a release date.

Series 5 contains the following episodes:
"High Fidelity"
"Bang"
"Non-Starter"
"Absent Friends"
"Suspicious Minds"
"Dead Loss"
"A Brush With the Law"
"Mind Over Matter"
"East Side Story"
"Find the Lady"
"An Inspector Stays"
"All Gone Pear Shaped"
"The Beautiful Game"
Christmas Special (1993) - "It Happened In Hollywood" This special follows Sharon and Tracy's hunt for their father in America. They wrongly think he is a celebrity (George Hamilton) and chase around Hollywood trying to find him. Sharon genuinely falls off a buggy in this episode and this was not an intended stunt. It was so funny that she agreed for it to be left in the final cut! Look out for it, its hilarious!
