LAST OF THE SUMMER WINE – Series 15 and 16
First out of the traps on 26 October 2009: the ongoing misadventures of Compo (Bill Owen), Clegg (Peter Sallis) and Foggy (Brian Wilde). With a penchant for light philosophy and full-on slapstick, LAST OF THE SUMMER WINE charts the ups, downs and full-on fiascos of three elderly friends tramping around the Yorkshire countryside. In a world where men are just over-grown boys, any authority comes in the shape of some of TV's scariest women.
Bill Owen, Peter Sallis and Brian Wilde are again joined by Kathy Staff (Nora Batty) and Thora Hird in two surreal and sublime series’ of this much-loved TV gem. Exhaustive and exhausting fitness regimes, an exploding gas cooker, too much home-brew at a funeral tea, living in misery with Nora Batty, bicycle safety underwear, self-hypnosis, seduction by trampoline and the inevitable cast iron bath are just some of the ingredients of these, the latest sips of the summer wine.
