Seven Of One (Ronnie Barker)
AUD
26.99
A$26.99

It came as no surprise to see Ronnie Barker slip effortlessly from character to character in this 1973 series. What, however, was amazing was the emergence of two great series from these single comedies: Roy Clarke's Open All Hours and Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais' Porridge (from Prisoner and Escort).
Open All Hours:
This was our first sight of Arkwright, the miserly Northern shopkeeper who victimises his delivery boy and nephew (played by David Jason).
Prisoner and Escort:
Fletcher, the career criminal, became Barker's most famous character. In this episode he meets future guards MacKay and Barrowclough.
My Old Man:
Barker plays retired and embittered engine-driver Sam Cobbett, the last tenant to leave his house in a road condemned by the council.
Spanner's Eleven:
This Roy Clarke scripted comedy revolves around Albert Spanner, hot dog seller and team coach for the dismal Ashfield Athletic Football Club.
Another Fine Mess:
This excellent homage to Laurel and Hardy finds Barker as Ollie teamed with Roy Castle as Stan.
One Man's Meat:
Barker, under the pseudonym Jack Goetz, wrote this story of a man desperate to escape a starvation diet imposed by his wife.
I'll Fly You For A Quid:
This Clement and La Frenais story finds Barker as gambling Welshman Evan Owen determined to retrieve his late father's winning betting slip.
Open All Hours:
