More Than Likely: A Celebration of The Likely Lads [read more]
What became of the people we used to be?
Whatever did happen to those likely lads?
Spinning off from the BAFTA-winning 1970s sequel to the incredibly popular 1960s sitcom, The Likely Lads (1976) feature film starred James Bolam and Rodney Bewes as Terry Collier and Bob Ferris, two life-long friends with vastly different outlooks on life. This feature presentation has been beautifully restored from original film elements.
But that's not all... Bob may memorably bemoan that 'in the chocolate box of life, the top layer may have already gone', however, the folks at Network have discovered a secret stash of orange crème... in the form of two recently recovered episodes from the original BBC TV series, thought lost for over five decades!
Screening for the first time, episodes A Star is Born and Far Away Places, will follow the feature film presentation. To round off an already exciting evening, Likely Lads creators Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais will join us for a very special Q&A session.
The Likely Lads (including the missing episodes) will be available on Blu-ray and DVD from Monday 1st April - copies of the new release will be exclusively available for early purchase at the event.
