In their time these movies were huge at the UK box office. Cheaply made, astonishingly unerotic and almost painfully unfunny, It really shows up how grim the early 70s must have been if people flocked to the cinemas to seek light relief in this dreck.

Anyway, you know the drill. Personable simpleton Timothy Lea, sporting a tasty selection of crushed velvet loon pants and enormously-collared slimfit nylon shirts, gets a new job with his brother in law Sid which inevitably leads to some hilarious swanee-whistle style slapstick and emcounters with sexy young ladies, usually at the same time.

From a modern viewpoint, the films work on several levels. One can revel in their sheer awfulness, of course, but they also serve as invaluable social documents of their time: Timmy and Sid live in a grim, non-swinging London still studded with bombsites and with hardly a car on the roads, returning at night to tiny, overcrowded homes full of pre-war furniture. This was a time when consumerism, foreign travel and ideas about sophistication and taste had yet to reach the mass of normal Britons, and their lives seem very poor and dowdy from todays perspective. For instance, imagine a time when being a driving instructor was considered a glamourous, enviable job..

Anyway, either as retro ironic treat or piece of film/social history, you can't go wrong at 12 quid for 6 hours of saucy 70s fun. Recommended.

lots of naughty flashes but its not porn its a laugh from the 70s and 80s cheap and chearfull section.

I was thrilled to find these little beauties as a box set at last! Full of corny saucy good humour, go on treat your-self at this price you can afford too.

Let's be honest these were a product of their times.
Robin Askwith WAS Timmy Lea, a cheeky chap with an eye for the birds, it has to be seen in the light of the 1970's when sex was seen as a bit of a larf.
The movies are self explanatory, Timmy starts a new job with his brother-in-law Sid Noggett, chaos ensues and women start to lose their clothing as Timmy gets another notch on his bedpost. It is harmless knockabout stuff full of knock-knock style jokes that have long past their time.
They are the cinema equivalent of naughty sea-side postcards.
Watch Jill Gascoine, Linda Bellingham, and many others who did not quite reach household fame disrobe in a series of nudge-nudge,wink-wink episodes.
It's not PC these days to like these movies. I saw them when they were first released and appreciate them better for that.
They deserve a new audience as both a historic movie novelty and as good fun.
Warning - not to be watched by anyone who thinks My Family is risque.

This is classic comedy at its very best with Robin Asquith and Anthony Booth(Tony Blairs uncle)in all kinds of adult Carry On humour.
Prabably the best is Window cleaner but Driving Instructor is really entertaining aswell.
With political correctness gone mad we shall never see the likes of this again,it was a very seventies thing with other series such as Love Thy Neighbour which were huge hits but wouldnot be allowed today.
For those who were too young to remember these films they follow the exploits of Asquith with his bawdy conquests of all the glamourous housewifes in the neighbourhood.Think of an adult version of the Carry on series an you will have the basic idea.

At just under five pounds a disc this is superb value and for some lite entertainment you cannot beat a bit of TIMOTHY LEA.

To think that these films when they first appeard in the cinema were bigger than James Bond in popularity shows how good they were and still are.
