Early Doors: Series 1 & 2 DVD (Used) - Free C&C

Series one and two of the BBC comedy, set in the environs of The Grape, an old-fashioned Manchester pub where the regulars spend most of their time. In series one, discarded fag ends are casusing the urinals to block up, tension mounts as the winner of the football sweepstake is announced, and Joan (Lorraine Cheshire) and Eddie (Mark Benton) celebrate their anniversary. In series two, forged banknotes start appearing in the pub, but who's responsible? While Duffy (Phil Mealey) faces up to single life, Ken (John Henshaw) the landlord begins to think about chucking the towel in, although he hasn't reckoned on the charms of Tanya (Susan Cookson) convincing him to keep the pub open.

Happy Hour (S1 E1) Highlight...

The show is about a pub landlord named Ken, especially his preoccupation with his step-daughter Melanie, who is preparing to meet her real father and his nervous relationship with barmaid Tanya. Ken's wife left him for his best friend.

The series reflects some of the Northern humour displayed in The Royle Family (co-written by Cash).

In a similar style to The Royle Family, every scene unfolds at The Grapes and it is also set in Greater Manchester. Two series of the show were produced in 2003 and 2004. The series refers to Stockport landmarks, including Houldsworth Square and the McVitie's factory.

Series 1 (6x 30min episodes)
A gentle yet compelling story of life, love, loneliness and blocked urinals. Each evening, the regulars bring their particular foibles and characteristics up to the bar. Overhearing their conversations and reliving the events in each of their lives is both moving and amusing. Series 2 The welcome return of the gentle, critically acclaimed comedy set entirely in The Grapes, a small pub in the North of England. Into this warm, slightly hopeless environment come a group of lovable characters who like a pint, but more than that, like each other. Lads Joe and Duffy command centre table and most of the conversation, largely at the expenses of landlord Ken's less acute regulars, such as Eddie, for whom a change in the town's traffic flow can become a preoccupation Features As per original releases

Meanwhile, Ken's preoccupation is how his stepdaughter Melanie will respond to having met her real dad, while local policemen Nige and Phil show their concern over the level of crime in the neighbourhood by listening to police radio in the comfort of Ken's snug. Overhearing their conversations and reliving the events in each of their lives is both moving and amusing.
