movie world

The first radio comedies were adapted into big screen hits as early as the 1940s, but the 70s saw the golden age of the phenomenon, with successful TV series ranging from Till Death Us Do Part to Dad's Army and Man About The House to Father Dear Father all crossing to the silver screen. A brand new box set collects together four of the most famous - three in high definition for the very first time anywhere.

Covering three brilliant sitcom smash hits, the films are: Dad's Army (1971); Steptoe & Son (1972); Steptoe And Son Ride Again (1973); and Are You Being Served? (1977).

Alongside the four restored films is an eye-watering surfeit of extra features: archive interviews, new commentaries, reproductions of original publicity materials, image galleries, isolated soundtracks, archive TV segments, and much more - making this a box set that any classic comedy fan has to own.

Dad's Army (1971)
Britain: 1939. Walmington-on-Sea. The defence of this tranquil coastal town is in the hands of bank manager Captain Mainwaring when he assembles a motley platoon to become the Home Guard.

Steptoe & Son (1972)
The bright lights of the West End beckon for Harold when he marries a stripper, but his ever-resentful father tags along on their honeymoon bringing an end to wedded bliss.

Steptoe And Son Ride Again (1973)
The Steptoes' loyal, but past-it horse must be sent off to the knacker's yard. Instead of buying a new nag, a drunken Harold blows their savings on a greyhound in the belief it will win them a fortune.

Are You Being Served? (1977)
The staff of Grace Bros. Ladies and Gentlemen's departments head to the sun-kissed shores of the Costa Plonka for the holiday of a lifetime while the store is redecorated.
