![The Goodies: The Complete Bbc Collection [DVD] - Picture 1 of 1](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/fwkAAOSwtNFih4OX/s-l500.jpg)
After years of having to make do with random episodes rationed out on DVD, it's great to have all the BBC episodes together. Loved them as a kid and they still appeal now, though some bits don't age well. My only complaint is that for a (relatively expensive) box set, the 'extras' are very light on - there were more special features on the previous (cheaper) DVDs.

Perfectionists beware, this is far from a "Complete Collection." As per IMDb (ID: tt0065296), it's missing 8 episodes in-all, including the originally screened version of "Kitten Kong" (although the "Montreux edition" is included) and the entire season 9 (comprising 7 episodes), as well as a host of extras which could easily have been packaged, including the documentary/flashback TV Movie "Return of the Goodies" (IMDb ID: tt0756706). This release is certainly better than nothing, I loved The Goodies all those decades ago and loved revisiting my childhood with this collection, it's just a crying shame that a handful of episodes weren't included.

Although as far as effort goes, the BBC could've delivered far more...no remastered footage, or extras like episode commentaries etc, offered in previous Goodies compilations, this does at least offer the full original BBC run of this immortal comedy team. Much like Monty Python, you need to be a fan of the era. Politically incorrect by today's standard's but much like the Monty Python team, Tim, Graeme & Bill weren't afraid to gently (& sometimes not so gently),subtly prod the culture of the era with their own funny brand & unwittingly find a younger Australian audience alongside it's adult one! Great seeing episodes like Snooze after so many years, alongside classics like The Jolly Rock Lighthouse, Gotta Be String, Ecky Thump, Cecily, & Radio Goodies, & more! Also subtle nods to pop culture of the era like Watership Down & Close Encounters of the Third Kind! If you're a fan of the show, very much a must buy so no matter what modern streaming platforms choose to avoid, you can enjoy a classic series.😁 Last but not least, thank goodness this compatible with Region 4 DVD players & not just Region 2,yay!

At long last the BBC has finally made this material available after nearly 40 years of viewer demand. Unfortunately a small number of episodes are in Black and White because no one bothered to apply the telecine auto-color restore process that was actually developed at the BBC--the grain in these episodes makes it obvious that the color information is embedded and can be computer extrapolated rather than made up by an editor, and other material of similar age has been appropriately restored, so why not these? For those with fond memories of this TV show and it's blatant Political Incorrectness, grab these discs while they are available, just in case it doesn't happen again.

You can't go wrong with this box set. For years we had to make do with only a small selection of episodes. Now you can have all of the BBC episodes in one box set. The Goodies are still incredibly funny and subversive.

it was great to watch the Goodies again, brings back childhood memories. The video hasn't been remastered, so don't expect today's tv show quality, but it was filmed in the 70s!

This brings back childhood memories that I thought were not available anymore. It's great to relive all these fun times again. If you grew up with The Goodies and want to remember all the great laughs again definitely pick this up.

So pleased to finally have this classic show released in full. A little bit annoying that the episode listing is hidden behind two discs on each side of the case, but that's a minor quibble.

Have always loved the goodies and to finally have them all available on DVD is awesome. The warped sense of humour stands the test of time and is still shed loads better than most modern comedies. If you love comedies like Blackadder, Mr Bean, Monty Phython, Peep Show, the Mighty Boosh, Flight of the Conchords then you'll love the Goodies. It's best watched an episode a night preferably before or after watching an episode of Dr Who.
