Faces Of Jim with Jimmy Edwards, June Whitfield, Ronnie Barker, Richard Briers and some interesting guests. Each episode stood alone from the others and there were a total of 20 produced but most have been lost. The Face Of Fatherhood was the origin of The Glums (with Ronnie Barker as Ron Glum). Unfortunately, whoever made the transfers used a variable bit rate on the audio and the A/V sync goes way out of whack here and there and can't be fixed like it could if they had used constant bit rate. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faces_of_Jim
The Dustbinmen was the creation of Jack Rosenthal and spawned from the 1968 low budget film There's A Hole In Your Dustbin, Delilah. A lot of later familiar faces in this one. Brian Wilde (Last of the Summer Wine, Porridge, Wyatt's Watchdogs), Trevor Bannister (Are You Being Served?, Wyatt's Watchdogs, Last of the Summer Wine), Paula Wilcox (The Lovers, The Liver Birds, Man About The House, The Smoking Room), Tim Wylton (A Bit Of A Do, As Time Goes By, My Hero and many guest appearances on some of most popular programs made including many dramas), and Bryan Pringle.
Doctor In The House was the first of the 7 "Doctor" sitcoms, producing 26 episodes between the Summer of '69 and Summer of '70. This first program was about "the doctors" in medical school and centered on Barry Evans as Michael Upton, as did the 2nd program Doctor At Large. All the "Doctor" programs had good writers, multiple characters and a fast pace that kept them from getting stale (through Doctor At Sea at least). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_in_the_House_%28TV_series%29
Curry & Chips was a controversial sitcom featuring 2 big names in comedy, Dick Emery and Spike Milligan, with Norman Rossington, singer Kenny Lynch, Sam Kydd, and a young Geoffrey Hughes (Onslow on Keeping Up Appearances). The powers that be deemed it racist and that was the end of it. That's kind of tough to swallow since a major factor of British comedy seems to be they don't like people from Scotland, Wales, the West Country, northern England, Spain, France, Germany, Catholics, the lower class (yes, they still have a class system) and most of all the Irish and Americans. But goodness gracious me! don't be British and portray an Indian. Very selective with their racism claims. It was alright for Michael Bates to be Rangi Ram in It Ain't Half Hot Mum because he was born in India and spoke Hindi. That's what they said anyways.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry_and_Chips#ReferencesChalk And Cheese was a late 70's sitcom starring Michael Crawford and followed his role in one of the most popular sitcoms of that era, Some Mothers Do 'ave 'em. http://www.phill.co.uk/comedy/cheese/index.html
Comedy Playhouse was a long running program of one-off comedies and pilot episodes. The list of sitcoms that got their start on Comedy Playhouse is impressive. Steptoe And Son, Meet The Wife, Till Death Us Do Part, All Gas And Gaiters, Beggar My Neighbour, Not In Front Of The Children, The Liver Birds, Up Pompeii!, Last Of The Summer Wine, It's Awfully Bad For Your Eyes Darling, Are You Being Served?, Happy Ever After (the forerunner of Terry And June). Nearly all of them are now lost, but here is a collection of some of the survivors most of which feature very familiar faces.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0861749/
2 television adaptations of the 1932 Stella Gibbons novel. The 1968 3-parter was also one of the first selections featured on the fledgling PBS' Masterpiece Theatre.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_Comfort_Farm
