Series you wish were on DVD

[V8S]

There's some TV series I, for one, cannot wait to see out on DVD. Rumours ahoy for years, but nothing concrete yet.

• Absolutely (90s comedy)
• Mr Don and Mr George (90s comedy spun out of Absolutely)
• Chelmsford 1-2-3 (80s comedy)

What long-lost and unavailable series do you keep checking Amazon for in vain hope?

Maybe some other PHer will be able to point us to a little-known retailer, or learn of great series that have passed us by.

Oh YES. "Stonybridge!"

[rude-boy]

Sleepers Nigel Havers (sp?) and that middle aged bloke they always used to drag in when they needed a middle aged northern bloke. BBC IIRC.

Oh and i think there was one called "winning" or something, but only because the story was based around girls going rallying and a 6R4

Batman

"Time Gentlemen Please" with Al Murray

Loved this show...thought it was one of the funniest things ive seem. Cant get it on DVD though

it does get its play on Paramount Comedy on sky every now aand again.

[TheCaseAce]

"The Wolvis Family" from 1991 - a one off, six part show about a family going through therapy. Was ace (i seem to remember) but there's quite literally bugger all about it available.

Jossy's Giants.

Agreed!

It did come back again in the 90s I believe, but then disappeared again.

I'm not sure which one I used to watch but it had Lampkin, Jarvis et al in it!?

"Jayce and The Wheeled Warriors" - I used to love that animated series on Channel 4, when I was a child. None of friends have ever heard of it though

Also, I wish "The Grimleys" were released on DVD. That was a great ITV comedy

Good shout with J&TWW; there's loads of 80s / 90s childrens programmes I'd love to see again.
