The Dustbinmen - The Complete Series

The Dustbinmen - The Complete Series

There's comedy among the dustbins with this classic, top-rated series from the late 1960s/early 1970s. Created by celebrated writer Jack Rosenthal, the series revolves around four misfits and their affectionately-named dustbin van - "Thunderbird 3" - and its working-class humour outraged Mary Whitehouse at the time it was broadcast.

Included in this set are all remaining episodes, including the original play and the Christmas special short.

First released: Monday 9th May 2005
