Awesome show, but I just want to warn people - currently when you go to buy this, it says customers often buy this collection with the Specials collection. However, the specials are actually INCLUDED in the set, so you don't have to buy them. I learnt this the hard way :(

I purchased this entire box set on VHS from Amazon.co.uk a few years ago after seeing episodes of Some Mothers 'Do Ave Em' on the BBC and UKGold channels. The series was going well before I was born as I was born in 1980 and having watched the repeats I fell in love with the series and just had to buy the box set when I found out one was available after browsing the internet!

Enjoy again and again this classic, timeless vintage BBC comedy starring Michael Crawford as accident prone Frank Spencer and Michele Dotrice as suffering wife Betty. This box set has every episode ever made including the 3 Christmas Specials.

From hanging his car over a cliff edge to roller skating down the high street behind a bus, Frank Spencer meets up with one disaster and harassment after another as nothing ever goes right for him! If you remember the series from the 1970's, are a huge fan and enjoy a great laugh, this really is an essential purchase for you! I watch this time and time again and even to this day still enjoy it just as much. So much infact I am now thinking of upgrading my VHS collection of the series to DVD! Brilliant and what a star Michael Crawford is! They certainly don't make them like this anymore!

I have just received this today. I also purchased the "Frequently bought together" item called The Specials. I now have two copies of this since it is included in the Complete BBC Series. It should make a lovely Christmas gift to someone.

Very funny and an absolute bargain, on four disks, running time is twelve hours and has every episode including all the xmas specials.
Worth every penny, Buy It!

What can I say what hasn't been said already? Not alot I'm afraid, but let me tell you this is a must see British Comedy.
The programme follows the unlucky and disaster prone Frank Spencer, played by the wonderful Michael Crawford.
Trouble follows Frank every where he goes and he always ends up in some interesting situtaions, such as hanging off a car hung over a cliff, flying a plane with no experience and even skating down the street behind a bus. Spencer causes trouble for everbody he comes into contact with (Watch out for a young Richard Wilson in one episode).
Michele Dotrice plays Franks loving wife Betty, who loves him for who he is. The on screne chemestry is great.
This comedy is still shown on TV today, it may look a bit dated now, but the whole family will enjoy it as it is a fun harmless comedy, which won't insult anyone. It's made even better by the fact that Crawford carries out all of his own stunts. It's been produced with a great quality.
The boxset includes the three series and three Christmas Specials. I only wish they'd have made more.
