5.0 out of 5 stars A hugely enjoyable comedy, 4 Feb 2005
By A Customer
Last of the Summer Wine has now been running so long that has become something of an institution. Series 3 sees the arrival of "Foggy", thus starting the long-running trio of "Foggy", "Clegg" and "Compo". Other characters introduced in later series are also very funny, but this combination is the most memorable. The beautiful Yorkshire countryside around the town of Holmfirth is another star of the show. It is great pity that the later episodes are not available on DVD yet - come on BBC!

4.0 out of 5 stars Vintage Wine, 5 Mar 2005
By D. Evans "dantheman95" (Southport) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
For a comedy that has now run on British television for over 30 years, Last of The Summer Wine has not particularly changed or evolved over the years. Indeed watch an episode from 25 years ago and compare it to one today, the difference are not that prominent. The third series introduced Foggy, who alongside Clegg and Compo, makes up what many fans would argue is the classic line up. Brian Wilde, fresh from his success in Porridge, immediately creates a highly memorable and amusing character who would become an essential ingredient in the series success. Indeed he would play this role on and off for the next 23 years, and his sudden rather departure in 1999 is still felt.
These episodes are very good, and worth owning.

4.0 out of 5 stars Odd lot!, 17 Sep 2005
By K. Wheeler "hughjampton" (Swanage, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Although the mood of the programme has changed somewhat, since most of the regulars have passed on to even greener places, the early episodes are still a blessing to watch.
I didn't think much to Foggy as a replacement for Cyril Blamire initially, I thought they made too much of his 'little moments' of meditation. It's a shame that Michael was too sick to continue playing Blamire, I thought his contribution to the first and second series were far more entertaining. He wasn't stupid, but put up with Compo's and Clegg's daftness as if they were children, and joined in quite cheerfully. You could actually respect his character.
But Foggy was just a great, long streak of idiot. I'm glad Roy Clarke mellowed his character while writing the later series. He was still dim, but became more likeable.
Compo is just as dirty - in all ways, and Clegg still comes up with his odd philosophical views of the world (even with the suggestion that our skin suggests that we are more closely related to the banana!).
Sid (sadly lost) and his better half in the cafe... how do they keep customers? They must have relied on holiday trade! And dear Nora, and her stockings and broom, and hen-(or pigeon-?)pecked Wally.
Even way back here you can catch odd jokes and references that crop up in Roy's other classics, 'Open All Hours' and 'Keeping Up Appearances'; but with him it's more like meeting old friends (thinking, 'I know that line!' and chuckling in that secret knowledge) than seeming like laziness.
Buy it - if only for two episodes. 'The Kink in Foggy's Nibblick' - just a fabulous exploration of all the characters - and 'Greenfingers'. Clegg at his most fascinating, philosophical inventiveness - it had me falling about laughing more than any other episode.
