The Good Life was probably the most enjoyable sitcom of the 1980's; hilariously funny, with plenty of innuendo but absolutely no gratuitous obscenities. 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. On his 40th birthday Tom Good (Richard Briers) decides that he's had enough of the rat race and that he and his wife Barbara (Felicity Kendal) should become self-sufficient. Overnight they begin to convert their suburban... garden into a farm complete with crops pigs and chickens homemade beer and more. But their choice of lifestyle doesn't exactly fit in with the neighbours in particular Margo, the affluent suburban housewife who looks upon the Goods new situation with equal measure of horror and pity. Unnoticed by the affected Margo, screen husband Jerry (Paul Eddington), enjoys an openly flirtatious relationship with Barbara, making for a comedy foursome that is quick witted, riotously amusing and suitable for all ages. The Good Life is 1980's light hearted family entertainment at its most brilliant. [show more]
