The entire first and second series of the cult TV show.

In the first season, a group of builders from England go over to Germany to work on a site by day, and do their bit for European harmony and understanding by night. Whilst in the second season, the likeable Geordies along with boring Barry from Wolverhampton and Londoner Wayne, find themselves in the exotic location of Marbella, following the success of their trip to Germany.

Regarded by many critics as Britain's best sitcom, Porridge is set to become even more popular following the sad death of Ronnie Barker in October 2005. His portrayal of Fletch, the experienced, cynical old lag, won the nation's heart when the series first hit our screens in 1973. This complete companion is the only book to tell the behind-the-scenes story of how the series came to be made and is packed full of never-before-published photographs and interviews with the cast and crew. It is also the only book to bring together the original scripts from all three series, making this the essential souvenir for all the millions of Porridge fans.

Three more episodes from the first series of the cult TV show, which sees a group of builders from England going over to Germany to work on a site by day, and do their bit for European harmony and understanding by night. The episodes are: 'Private Lives', 'The Fugitive' and 'The Alien'.
