5.0 out of 5 stars Great to see the beginnings. 19 Aug 2012
By M. Herr
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
After all those years how could anyone improve "Summer Wine"? By showing how and where it all began. So great to see these familiar characters as young men. And to have Cleggy playing his own father, great. I do wish they'd taken the boys on into the war . . . but that might have been too sad. After you've seen the "Last", see the "First".

By cadet dave

Right on both in the characters and the settings. Excellent story telling and a pleasure to watch.The antics of all seem to fit perfectly with the later characters in the Last of the Summer Wine.Peter Salis is convincing as his own father.I highly recommed this series to all fans of the Last of the Summer Wine

5.0 out of 5 stars love it
I think Last of the Summer Wine is brilliant so wasn't sure I would like the prequel. i needn't have worried as we find it the same gentle humour. Thoroughly enjoyable.

4.0 out of 5 stars First of the Summer Wine.....
It was okay. Just wish the whole "first" series had started when the characters were a lot younger and we could have followed them for a longer period of time.

4.0 out of 5 stars guy's review.
Quite enjoyable but not as much as "last of the summer wine". It took a little while to reconcile some of the characters' personalities to those of their adult equivelants.
