ANDY CAPP: THE COMPLETE SERIES - DVD

Andy Capp, the flat-capped cartoon-strip legend, became a television star as James Bolam brought the loveable Northern layabout to life in this hilarious Thames sitcom.

With Bolam in the title role, fag an' all, the series also brings to life Flo, Andy's long-suffering wife (played by Emmerdale's Paula Tilbrook), Jack the landlord, Percy the rent collector, and the rest of the gang from the pages of the Daily Mirror.

Written by Leeds-born novelist, playwright and journalist Keith Waterhouse - creator of classic characters Budgie and Billy Liar - this unique series is directed by BAFTA winner John Howard Davies (Fawlty Towers, Mr. Bean).
