The Good Life - Complete Series One
On his 40th birthday Tom Good (Richard Briers) decides he's had enough of the daily grind; he packs in his job and convinces his wife Barbara (Felicity Kendal) that they should become self-sufficient.
Overnight they convert their suburban garden into a farm for organic living, complete with crops, pigs and chickens and homemade beer, much to the disapproval of their snooty neighbour Margo (Penelope Keith) and her henpecked husband Jerry (Paul Eddington).
This 2-disc set is the first complete, correctly ordered release of Series 1. Fully digitally remastered, it also includes a special interview with Bob Larbey, the series co-creator/writer.
