Trivia
The series was written primarily by Graeme Garden and Bill Oddie, with the occasional episode written by Graham Chapman. Both Garden and Chapman had studied, (and qualified), as a medical doctors at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, but neither had an inclination to practice the profession, instead choosing to write and perform comedy. They were both able to use their own experiences whilst at University and their medical knowledge to create realistic scenarios.

Barry Evans was not Dirk Bogard!

The Picture of this show is one of DIRK BOGARD the actor, who starred in the earlier movies. The Movie collection has no relation to the TV series which did star Barry Evans, among others. The TV series was released in the 1970's on VCR, maybe 6 episodes from the first season. (It was wildly popular on PBS stations here in the USA but not as popular in the UK where it was produced by the wonderful London Weekend Television). So if you are looking for the Barry Evans TV series, written by some Monty Pythoners, & extremely funny, be aware of the difference. Unless you want the Movie Collection starring Dirk Bogard, I do not believe at present you can get a DVD of the Barry Evans TV series.
