5.0 out of 5 stars Escaping the rat-race with charm, 15 Mar 2006

This review is from: The Good Life - the Complete Collection [DVD] [1975] (DVD)
If you have ever wanted to shout "stop the world I want to get off", this is what this sit-com is about. Charming in it's wit and humor, it gently pokes fun at the classism and snobbery of british life. It contrasts the social climbing of Margo next door and toadying that "Jerry" her husband must do to keep in with his boss, with Tom & Barbara's poverty, freedom and self-sufficiency. It is as relevant today as then (mid 1970s). It's style of humour is perhaps "quaint" much in the same vein as Wallace and Grommit, or the Ealing comedies, and the humour of the characters are that they are all essentially likable - despite obvious warts and all.

Tom( Richard Briars) and Barbara (Felicity Kendall) have excellent "chemistry" together. All the characters are well acted. Because of this, each episode is guaranteed to leave you with a strong feel-good factor.

This review is from: The Good Life - the Complete Collection [DVD] [1975] (DVD)
When the world seems cold and rubbish and life is getting you down, watch this and feel happier, Excellent writing and a brilliant story line. We have watched this so many times, we know it off by heart and its just the best.
