Here come the lads! A slice of 60s working class life, THE LIKELY LADS slotted in neatly alongside STEPTOE AND SON and TIL DEATH US DO PART, but this time the focus was on youth and it was set far away from London... Terry Collier and Bob Ferris are two sharp young Geordies, short on cash, hormones buzzing, eager to live their young lives to the full. Terry, though po-faced and cynical, is quick-witted and full of madcap schemes; Bob, cautious and socially ambitious but lacking his mate's self-confidence, is invariably dragged along. Theirs is a responsibility-free world of booze, girls, football and laughs - but somewhere there is also a nagging feeling that their youth won't last forever... Join James Bolam (NEW TRICKS, BORN AND BREAD) and Rodney Bewes for a jovial slice of classic 60s hi-jinks with all 8 surviving episodes of The LIKELY LADS, available for the first time on DVD.
