I remember growing up in the 80s and the George & Mildred repeats being on TV, and my Mum saying it was a good series. As I grew older the repeats stopped, but I always remembered it, especially Yootha Joyce. I was aware of her early passing which for some reason made the series stick in my memory even more.
I recently purchased this box set and it is a wonderful series. George is as dim as they come, and Mildred is the bossy wife. On screen, they have a great partnership, and off it, the actors were good friends, and it shows.
The writers did a great job and most episodes are excellent.
Take a trip back in time and enjoy the series - they don't make sitcoms like this any more, it really is excellent.

By Film Lover
Another must buy as it contains every single episode filmed.You really go wrong here if like us you are big fans.
As a bonus I noticed that the picture quality is much better than when it is shown on UK Gold or whatever.
It looks as if its been remastered but I doubt is has.
