Call the Midwife - Disc 10

 


☑ Call the Midwife has finished its 10th series. ☑ Believe it or not, there will be at least two more series to come. 😩 ☑ They also aired a 10th anniversary special, but it will not fit on the disc.  ☑ If you'd like to see it, you can download it here: ☑ Special Delivery  ☑ I'll keep the link active for a week or so.

Breeze Block + Bootle Saddles

 

I posted Breeze Block here about 5 years ago, but it was not very good quality. These are digital quality. 
Breeze Block was about the Breeze family who resided in a lovely tower block. Tim Healey starred as Ralph Breeze, but the rest of the family was played by actors not as well known (although Craig Heaney played a son and just prior to this show had been a regular in the large cast of Band Of Brothers), however other cast members included Ashley Jensen, Mark Benton, Jill Halfpenny and I recall seeing Denise Welch (Healey's wife at the time), Tom Goodman-Hill, Ross Noble......


I posted Bootle Saddles here a couple years ago and the quality was pretty good, but these are digital and little sharper. Bootle had a good cast. 
I was going to add more here but Google, which sucks so bad, is not letting me add or change anything.

Life As We Know It + Mr. Charity

 


Two sitcoms from 20 years ago when the BBC was still doing comedy, and drama for that matter, and not the box-ticking rubbish they've been churning out in recent years.  I first posted Life as we Know It 5 years ago, but it was sourced from really horrible quality video tapes. Now this sitcom starring Richard Wilson and Stephanie Cole is nice clean digital. I posted Mr. Charity here over 11 years ago in a similar condition (I recall getting the audio in sync with the video was a challenge) but now the Stephen Tompkinson-starring sitcom is also upgraded to clean digital. Olivia Colman appears in an episode of each of these, two of her earliest TV appearances. I believe she's had much success since those days. 

Life As We Know It
