"At just ten under hours this is a great 2 set of some classic British sitcoms from the past -- all holiday episodes. The source material on some is bargain basement at best but for the most part it is a good set to have. I've only watched a few but for the price, I'm happy I got this one! Be forewarned some of the shows are VERY un PC! Here's a listing of the offerings in this 2 disc set:



Disc #1:



1. The Dustbinmen - Christmas Special

2. Please Sir! - And Everyone Came Too!

3. On The Busses - Christmas Duty

4. All This - And Christmas Too!

5. Nearest and Dearest - Cindernellie

6. Billy Liar - The Gift of the Magi

7. Two's Company - A Loving Christmas

8. Stanley Baxter's Christmas Box (variety show from the 70's)

9. The Rag Trade - The Christmas Rush

10. Bless Me Father - The Season of Goodwill

"I watched this on Christmas day, and it brought back so many memories of being in England and watching these old comedies. Great stuff if you English and love the old classics I recommend it."
