A stellar cast and outstanding acting for this tongue in cheek comedy. Featuring then blossoming stars like Emma Thompson, Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry, ALFRESCO was aired in 1983 but didn’t make it to a second season. This two disc collection gives you the opportunity to relive the sketches that made this series a much sought-after cult of British comedy.

“It just isn’t on - these documents will never pass. Look at this:
‘Please let this man through’, signed Hitler. I mean, really...”
Running
for two series in the early 1980s, Alfresco was the same quickfi re
combination of anarchic sketches and musical items that made Not the
Nine O’Clock News, The Two Ronnies and Monty Python’s Flying Circus so
successful. Featuring six young comedians who were destined to become
household names within a few years of its transmission, Alfresco
starred Ben Elton (who did the bulk of the writing), Stephen Fry, Hugh
Laurie, Emma Thompson, Robbie Coltrane and Siobhan Redmond. Alfresco
set the seeds for future shows like A Bit of Fry and Laurie, Ben
Elton’s The Man from Auntie and Saturday Live.
Everything was
fair game and a target for their humour - chat shows, effeminacy,
British WWII films, Shakespeare and private health care, to name a few.
So, whether you’re interested in seeing Ben Elton looking young enough
to still be in school, a radical examination of Peterborough’s arts
scene or the blistering sight of Hugh Laurie dancing to the theme tune
of Tales of the Unexpected, this DVD is for you!
Special Feature: There’s Nothing to Worry About! - all three episodes of the Granada region-only prequel series.
