The Good Life, The Windbreak War

A feast of self-sufficiency fun. Barbara and Tom find it almost impossible to catch the early worm as their early rising disturbs their neighbours the Leadbetters.

The 70s sitcom that put self-sufficiency in the spotlight and sparked a rush to replace flowerbeds with vegetable patches. Tom and Barbara are blessed with piglets.

Classic sitcom fun. A truly memorable episode as the Goods' cash-flow crisis coincides with Margo and Jerry's need to find temporary replacement domestics.

Margo and Jerry are furious when Tom starts playing music to the trees, especially as Margo is staging a coup for the presidency of the Music Society.

Surbiton's nets are twitching as war breaks out between the Goods and the Leadbetters. It's over Margo's new windbreak which darkens the Good's fruit patch.

The superb 1970s self-sufficiency comedy. Tom and Barbara try to keep their fleas to themselves. God forbid that they should spread next door - oh no!

Superb sitcom. Barbara tries to remain a woman, despite her work-worn hands and a ruined dress. Tom, of course, can't see what the problem is - just like a man!
