notable only for the marvellously talented and sadly missed james beck.

this was an average english comedy sitcom which use to go out on a sunday night on i.t.v. in the early 70s. it starred a lovely comic actor named james beck; best known as private walker from 'dad's army' who sadly passed away shortly after with pancreas trouble. most of it was set on a holiday camp between two couples in their seperate caravans and was slightly similar to 'on the buses'. r.i.p. james.
