Synopsis
After three series and two Christmas specials of Porridge, Fletcher finally gets released from prison in Going Straight. Following his release from Slade prison, after numerous spells in prison and at the age of 45, Fletcher tries to stick to the straight and narrow, but it isn't easy - life in the outside world is just not the same as it used to be. Will Fletch take to life on the outside - or will he yearn for the company of thieves and screws?

Product Description
All six episodes of the 1978 spin-off of the sitcom 'Porridge'. Fletch (Ronnie Barker) is released from jail after spending three years, eight months and four days at Her Majesty's pleasure. But life on the outside isn't as easy as he's hoped it would be... A young Nicholas Lyndhurst co-stars as Fletch's teenage son Raymond.

Wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, really enjoyed the first episode anyway

There is a bit of misconception that Going Straight was not rated. Truth is it was hugely rated, attracting massive viewership and and won a BAFTA. The only reason it stopped at series one is because of the sad passing of Richard Beckinsale.

Always surprising they don't give it as much air time on UKGold, but I suspect people assume its a atypical bad spin spinoff

I was going to buy porridge the other day but then I realised from the same site you can get the whole Ronnie barker ultimate collection including porridge, going straight, open all hours and a couple of others for the exact same price as this so maybe worth checking for that first. I had it delivered this week. (edited)
