Hugh and I [DVD]

Product Information

Such a shame that episodes have been lost due to the then common practice of wiping tapes due to the cost of the tape. One evening whilst Terry and his mother are away at a dinner party over at the Wormwolds, he invites Norma's Jazz group, the Tooting Trad Type over, so they can practise in the living room. Getting up at 5am and wandering around on cold moors quickly loses its appeal, and it doesn't help that there are army manoeuvres there, so they head south to Brighton. The opening episode is the weakest, but once past that HUGH AND I reveals itself as a thoroughly decent sitcom that genuinely raises a laugh - either through John Chapman's dialogue or the pitch-perfect antics of the leads: a blustering, know-it-all Terry Scott and his put upon lodger Hugh Lloyd. After cashing in on their winnings, Hugh and Terry embark on the first leg of their round the world cruise.

I love watching this and other 1960s sitcoms as I wasn't born when they were originally transmitted. The picture and sound quality could benefit from a clean up but I suppose it's better to have this than nothing at all.
