  In this superbly funny and deeply human series from Carla Lane (Bread, Butterflies, The Liver Birds), Solo finds Felicity Kendal in the role of Gemma Palmer, a passionate and confused thirty year old. On discovering that her live-in boyfriend Danny (Stephen Moore) has been having an affair with her best friend, she throws him out and decides to live life on her own, independent and free. But keeping Danny out of her life and staying unfettered turns out to be much harder than she expected. Series One follows Gemma’s struggle to shake Danny loose from her life and her heart where he’s more difficult to dislodge. Meanwhile, in the room upstairs two flatmates, Bernadette and Josie, debate dating, romance, love and marriage. In Series Two, a fully freed-up Gemma finds herself back in the dating world and making friends with a new neighbour, Sebastian, whose close friendship and reckless love life runs on parallel – and occasionally bumping – lines. With Gemma’s mother always on hand to dispense guidance, support and tales of her own love life, Solo uncovers the many surprising layers of dependence that independence brings.

• The Good Life - Series Three | DVD | (19/07/2010) from £6.70   |  Saving you £13.29 (198.36%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Celebrating 35 years since its original broadcast and available for the first time in series order this is the comedy series that put organic foods self-sufficiency and green thinking on the map. The swings and roundabouts of relationships with Jerry and Margo continue to swing and go roundabout as Tom and Barbara evolve their good life in Suburbia. Windbreaks that break more than wind pregnant pigs and a bad case of fleas lead to all manner of mishaps and misread intentions; and while Tom experiments in talking to plants Barbara reaches the end of her tether with a tear in her last posh frock. Episodes Comprise: 1. The Early Birds 2. The Happy Event 3. A Tug Of The Forelock 4. I Talk To The Trees 5. Whos Fleas Are These? 6. The Last Posh Frock

• The Good Life - The Complete Series 4 | DVD | (28/01/2002) from £17.96   |  Saving you £10.02 (66.93%)   |  RRP £24.99

  The Good Life has proved an enduring jewel in the BBC's mainstream comedy archive. More than 25 years after it first appeared in our living rooms, nostalgia must be a major reason for its appeal. A whole generation of young men--and their fathers--found the weekly sight of Felicity Kendal as Barbara Good, pert in denim dungarees, irresistible. But it's the quality of the playing that has really stood the test of time and triumphs over a premise--self-sufficiency in Surbiton--that now seems naïve. Even in 1975, a Tom Good (a masterpiece of comic eccentricity from Richard Briers) quitting the rat race would probably have sold up his semi and chanced his luck as a small holder somewhere more remote than suburban Surrey. Comic tensions arise not just from the Goods' daily struggle to beat the system on their own terms, but also from the relationship with their incredulous, often horrified, but usually supportive neighbours. Penelope Keith's Margo Leadbetter remains one of the great comic creations in British sitcom history--a simmering volcano of conservatism waging her own battle against creeping mediocrity in all aspects of life, whose human frailty somehow keeps her loveable. Paul Eddington as Jerry, her long-suffering husband, spars splendidly. These are happy memories indeed. --Piers Ford
