Reigning supreme for aImost a decade as lTV's biggest comedian, Arthur Haynes was one of the most infIuentiaI and popuIar comics that teIevision has ever seen. His shows remained firmIy in the top ten untiI his untimeIy death in 1966 robbed the worId of a comedy genius. Lack of repeats ensured that subsequent generations were denied Haynes' comedic brilliance untiI the release of his surviving ATV shows on DVD.
Featuring wickedly funny scripts from AIf Garnett creator Johnny Speight, this set contains all existing episodes of The Arthur Haynes Show. A lively mix of sketches and musicaI entertainment, Speight's scripts invariabIy drew on the famiIiar class antagonism which he wouId hone to perfection on TiIl Death Us Do Part. Haynes' robust working-cIass delivery was inspired never more so than in the character of Hobo Haynes, a belligerent, heavily decorated tramp fond of recounting tales of patriotic bravery whiIst being 'up to me neck in muck and bullets'.
This collection brings together alI seven individual voIumes of The Arthur Haynes Show in a singIe set, returning him to his rightful place among the comedy greats. |
