    Innovative and influential, and originally envisaged as a children's show Do Not Adjust Your Set was a madcap early-evening comedy sketch show that quickly acquired a cult following with Swinging Sixties adults, who rushed home from work to see it. Written by and starring Michael Palin, Terry Jones, Eric Idle, with great performances and additional material from David Jason and Denise Coffey, it also provided an early showcase for the hilarious animations of Terry Gilliam, and the brilliantly bizarre musical antics of the legendary Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band. For the first time anywhere all the fully existing episodes from the Rediffusion and Thames series of the show are brought together at last in one place for a deluxe package that includes five episodes new to DVD, at least two of which were previously thought lost, alongside new interviews with series director creator and producer Humphrey Barclay, writer and performer Michael Palin, uninvited guest star Tim Brooke-Taylor, animations from Terry Gilliam's personal collection, and a new documentary about the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, featuring new interviews with 1960s originators and key personnel Neil Innes, Rodney Slater, Roger Ruskin-Spear and 'Legs' Larry Smith.

    The central though nearly impenetrable plot of Sir Henry at Rawlinson End is Sir Henry's (Trevor Howard) attempts to exorcise the trouserless ghost of his dead brother Humbert whom he accidentally killed in a drunken duck-shooting incident. This is aided or hindered by his mad family and servants including the tapeworm-obsessed Mrs. E; Old Scrotum the wrinkled retainer; the eternally knitting Aunt Florrie and Lady Phillipa of Stains a turkey-legged old soak. With German PoWs in the garden fishing for hairdressers a mechanical bulldog a horse in the billiards room and a marriage bed furnished with a barbed-wire divide the mayhem of Rawlinson End is endless....
