Must buy British tv comedy. Excellent.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sykes - the First Colour Series [DVD] [1972] (DVD)
Well worth waiting nearly a year after the initial advertised release date - a lot of work has gone into this DVD set of the complete 1972 series, 16 episodes. Network Video have done an excellent job at restoration and the images are very clean and bright. Half of the episodes have extra material added. In addition there are many outtakes.

ERIC SYKES COMEDY GREAT,
By Strat Man (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sykes - the First Colour Series [DVD] [1972] (DVD)
Wonderfully warm intelligent and clever at comedy Sykes is a delight to watch.This DVD contains 3 discs and a total of 16 episodes from 1972.The writing is as always sharp and amusing.The joke is always firmly on Eric.The character parts he writes for himself range from sanctimonious to dimwitted,the daydreamer with big ideas and the know-all who is ready for a fall with his sister Hattie by his side.
Here is a writer at the top of his game.Its just a shame that mainstream TV doesn't recognise too often the fine body of work Eric Sykes has contributed over the years.My favourites on here are Uncle,Football,Cat, Cafe and the lunacy of Job.The fact that Peter Sellers appears in Stranger hints at the respect and regard fellow celebrities have for Eric.Jimmy Edwards Bill Maynard Joan Simms and Roy Kinnear also feature in various episodes. The Series has been cleaned up and restored and looks very impressive it does include 1 black and white episode Journey and has features including out-takes a real gem of a comedy.More please BBC.

Worth Every Penny!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sykes - the First Colour Series [DVD] [1972] (DVD)
This is a truly excellent DVD package - the extras are wonderful and hugely appropriate, the picture quality and restoration superb and the whole pack was obviously put together by people with a great love of this classic series.Treat yourself to 16 episodes of some of the best British comedy ever made. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
